    What were the best unplanned things?
    Our Venice host messaging us and saying " my husband and I are taking the boat out tonight, want to come out for a glass of wine?"

    A Bangladeshi husband and wife inviting us to come back to their restaurant and "let me cook a meal for you"

    Getting tickets to the sold out opera in Venice.

    Discovering city park in Budapest.

    Gondola rides in the Dolomites.

    How much at home we felt in Madrid.
