Dream Travel Destinations With Jo Hall

Sun, sand and ancient cities - just like us at Black Pepper HQ, we’re sure that you’ve been dreaming of a European getaway. Whether you’ve never been before or are practically a resident of the faraway continent, there’s nothing quite like a visit to some of the world’s oldest and most cultured cities to make you feel refreshed and rejuvenated.

No matter what country is on your bucket list - Swiss Alps? French wine country? The canals of Venice! - planning a European holiday can be pretty overwhelming. Our Black Pepper Ambassador, the wonderful Jo Hall, recently returned from her Euro Trip and has given us a shortlist of her favourite places to visit. Keep reading below to find out where Jo went, where she’s been before, and the best Black Pepper clothes to wear when you get there.

“We just returned from our European vacation, where we flew into London before spending a few days in Nice, and a week in Barcelona before Portugal which was somewhere I had never been before.

As always, I pledged to travel light, which I managed to do this time… leaving some room in my suitcase for a cheeky purchase.
My all-time favourite destinations are all around Europe; there’s nothing quite like it! I love London - with my eldest son living abroad for over a decade, I’ve become very familiar with the city, and like it more every time I go.

Santorini is breathtakingly beautiful, and Paris is always a good idea!

I simply adore Italy, we’ve found that travelling by car is the best way to do it. In fact, my all-time favourite places are where we spent our Europe holiday last year –a place called Praiano, near Positano on the Amalfi Coast, and the absolute top of my list is Taormina in Sicily. I completely fell in love with it and cannot wait to return.

Happy travelling!
Love, Jo”
