Burano and Murano, Italy
Burano: not like a box of chocolates… more like box of Crayolas!
This week we visited Burano and Murano, two tiny islands in the Venetian Lagoon just a short boat ride from Venice main. So far Burano has been a personal highlight of the trip, it’s so small we were able to cover the entire place on foot in less than an hour. Burano is known for its brightly coloured homes which made it a very cheerful looking village, I absolutely adored wandering here.
Murano, famous for its beautifully made Murano glass was no disappointment either. I loved the gorgeous brightly colored jewelley, ornate vases and other glass items crafted by the locals. I bought a stunning pendant so now I have my very own piece of Murano to take back home! ;-)
