Starting my morning off at one of the most beautiful cenotes I have ever been to! There are over 6,000 cenotes in the Yucatán peninsula, this one (Suytun Cenote) is by far the most impressive. I’ll be sharing a live tour of the cenote next week along with its history and visitation information.
To all my Narcos fans out there ! Want to stay in drug kingpin Pablo Escobars former mansion in Tulum!? Well now you can, this beautiful property has now been turned into a boutique resort perched between the Caribbean Sea and jungle in Tulum, Mexico. After Pablo’s death in 1993 the home remained abandoned until a art dealer, Lio Malca, from New York purchased the property and re renovated it into this gorgeous hotel in 2012. Lio incorporated his own personal art collection into the property and redecoration of the hotel. It’s like walking through a art museum. Here’s a few clips of what the property is like now. I’ll be sharing a OFTV video next week for a full tour of Casa Malca, can’t wait to share my experience with you guys! - chow Mila 💗

Come explore the island of Holbox with me 🥰
Good morning from Chichen itzá !! Did you know the pyramid behind me was designed to be a calendar? This iconic landmark, the Pyramid of Kukulkan has 365 steps in total,91 on each side and one at the top. This equals the number of days in a year. Each side represented one season and was used to figure out the best times for sowing seeds and harvesting crops. I’ll be sharing more about Chichen itzá in my next OF video 💗- chow!
It’s Monday baby! New video coming this week 🤩 ever been to Holbox Mexico ? It’s one of the most charming islands I’ve ever been to, stay tuned for the details 🥰!
Kalimera my friends! Saying hello today all the way from Athens Greece. I spent the last week exploring the ancient monuments of Athens. I highly recommend taking the tour of the famous Acropolis. You can also check out my travel video I made of my Acropolis tour on OFTV :) .
Here's some interesting facts I found out about the Acropolis on my tour :
1.) The Acropolis construction started in 5th century BC and is said to be designed by architect Pericles.
2.) The Acropolis of Athens is home to the Parthenon, the Propylaia, the Erechtheion and the Temple of Athena Nike. These buildings are visible from almost every angle of Athens.
3.) The Parthneon is the temple for goddess Athena, this temple also served as the treasury for Athens.
4.)Inside the Partheno area, there once stood a massive statue of Athena Promachos (champion). The statue stood 9 metres high and symbolised the victory and the strength of the Athenians over the Persians. Pheidias (the statue’s sculptor) placed a shield in her left hand and a spear in her right one. It's said Emperor Theodosius stole the statue and brought it to Constantinople in the year 426 AD. In 1204, inhabitants of the city ruined the statue. They believed the statue was to blame for a crusader invasion they suffered.
5.) Greece wants the Parthenon Marbles returned, and apparently they aren't to happy about it. Much of the art that was once home to Acropolis is now gone. Some of the ancient artefacts are housed in museums. One of the controversial museum piece is the Parthenon Marbles. They are now on display in the British museum of London and the Greek government has order they return these marbles to their home land and be displayed in the museum of Athens.
Be sure to check out my video on OFTV for more videos! Have an amazing rest of your week xoxo - Ciao Mila 🥰
Greetings from America today! Let's not forget that 20 years ago today tragedy struck at the Twin towers. Lets all take a moment to remember and honor the lives and families who lost their loved ones and the survivors that are still struggling from this horrific attack. We will never forget the firefighters, civilians and everyone who risked their lives searching for survivors and helping one another through this entire crisis. If you are in the New York area I recommend checking out and paying tribute to the beautiful twin tower memorial and museum that now stands there. God Bless America - Mila ❤🤍💙
Monday’s are always full of fun for me 🤗 Did you know in Mykonos island alone there are over 365 churches 🤯!! Here’s a pic of me at my favorite one in Merchia beach.

Good morning babes!!! Finally enjoying a bit of the weekend, was reminiscing over my trip to Monaco in 2019 before corona. Every time I go to France I always make time to do a couple days in Monaco.
Did you know the entire principality of Monaco spans only 0.78 square miles! This makes it roughly 3/4s the size of New York’s Central Park. Despite its small size its home to some of the most iconic beaches, gardens and museums. This picture above is at my favourite hotel De Paris Monte-Carlo. I hoping to return this fall 🥰
