Co-host Belle takes us to Greece and Bulgaria, travelling by rail on a slow food, slow travel journey of these neighbouring countries, eurail.com She travelled on a Eurail pass, which criss-crosses 33 European countries, all without flying. She also gives us a peek at the new Mandarin Oriental Costa Navarino on the Peloponnese peninsula, on the Greek mainland - and it's as glamorous as you would expect! mandarinoriental.com
Also, would you let your 15-year-old train around Europe with their friends? And where's the most popular place to see the sunset in the world? The answer may not surprise you...
Finally, if you have Italian heritage, check out the Italea project, which aims to link people with the villages of their ancestors, see italea.com
