There was a time when I dreamed of being a digital nomad. It was during that period that I imagined and created the first version of Avygeo (an anagram of voyage), with the desire to better prepare my own trips... and those of others. The nomadism didn't end up happening. Other, even more exciti…
It was during that period that I imagined and created the first version of Avygeo (an anagram of voyage), with the desire to better prepare my own trips... and those of others.
The nomadism didn't end up happening. Other, even more exciting projects took over, including a mini-me who is now in middle school :)
With my partner Éric, I then rethought Avygeo to make it what it is today: a participatory travel guide, based on lived experiences, sincere reviews, and sharing between travelers.
You come to Avygeo to find where to go and what to do.
You come back to tell what you really experienced, and to help other travelers make better choices.

Now the residence of the president, only a part of the former Palace of the Grand Masters is open for visits today. A few lovely rooms with period furniture to visit, and what I really liked was the armory room where you can see a multitude of swords, armor, crossbows, arquebuses, and small cannons. It is impressive.

Culture moment: do you know why it is called a "co-cathedral"? Because this church is consecrated, but the main seat of the diocese is at Mdina Cathedral. From the outside, the building is elegant and relatively understated, like many other buildings in Valletta. Inside, it is a whole different story. Gilding and paintings everywhere, it is stunning. Even the marble floor is covered with patterns. By the way, all those marble slabs cover the bodies of knights of the Order of Saint John who distinguished themselves during their lifetime. Yes, you will be walking on tombs without even realizing it. Other things to know: there are 2 Caravaggio paintings to see inside, and you can add €5 to t…

I've walked past Sainte-Chapelle many times in the past without even noticing this little religious monument, literally stuck right up against the Palais de Justice. To be completely honest, the price is pretty high for how long the visit takes (30 minutes if you just want to "see" it, longer if you want to look at all the details). When you walk into the first level... It's nice, but cramped, and my first impression was disappointment: I paid 23€ for this??? Then, a staircase I hadn't noticed at first leads you up to the upper level... Now that is a whole different story! It isn't any wider, but the ceiling height is way higher, and huge, spectacular stained glass windows tower all aroun…
