The 2026 Carnival kicked off over the weekend in Venice. For the next two weeks the streets will be filled with costumed revellers - it's fun, it's colourful and it's entertaining.... #grandtourist #educatedtraveller #venezia #venice #discovery A little bit of St Mark’s or San Marco in your mind - spectacular views, full visit including Museo #cavalli #paladoro #mosaics tutto a vedere #muve #Venezia #Venezia photo of the day #Redentore Discover Venice Biennale 2026 - let's start looking forward to the opening in May...... Haberdashery….bits and bobs and little pieces of inspiration for travel in 2026 The lagoon of Venice is a vast wetland creating a natural habitat for numerous types of birds. A day on the lagoon discovering the northern reaches and the birds that live there is truly magical. We have to proceed at a snail’s pace #cormorant #wader #egret #ducks #geese flamingo especially in spring time. The Venetians and the lagoon My favourite - il mio #preferito vino di Friuli @liviofelluga @ufficioturisticocividale #vini #orientali #collio #educatedtraveller
