February is a month dedicated for love with Valentines Day falling right in the middle. The stories are many about Valentine, but old, with no concrete proof of the right one. Some say Valentine married Roman soldiers when there was an order not to. Others say Valentine was jailed and fell in love with the jailer's daughter. He wrote her love letters from jail. She begged her father to spare Valentine, but the jailer took Valentine's life.
Romance is about creating a mood. It's helped by having a setting that inspires love. Today I thought I'd do a countdown of some of the most romantic cities in the world.
