David Muir is enjoying some well deserved time away from his busy work schedule, and it looks positively dreamy.
The World News Tonight anchor shared a rare personal update with fans when he took them inside his glorious Italian vacation.
David looked very different from his polished on-air appearance as he wore casual attire while exploring what the European country had to offer.
Taking to Instagram he shared several snapshots of his getaway and confessed in the caption that his "heart is full."
He said he was "still smiling," and his 20/20 co-host Deborah Roberts was one of the first to weigh in.
"You went to my happy place," she remarked.
David Muir thrilled fans with photos of his family who he very rarely shares images of
It appeared that David was traveling with his sister Rebecca and their mom Pat.
They featured in several photos where they both looked to be reveling in the culture of the country.
David prefers to keep his personal life out of the spotlight, meaning fans were even more thrilled to get insight into his life away from the cameras.
David has spoken openly about his upbringing and childhood which was not like other kids
David Muir was born to his father, Ronald Muir, and mother, Pat Mills on 8 November 1973, however they divorced when David was young.
But despite their separation, David's parents raised him together.

David told Syracuse.com: "When most kids go off to do other things, I remember just begging them to take me to that TV station.
"I'm sure they dreaded it. Between the two of them, they had to get me there. To this day, I'm grateful they would drive me to 980 James St."
His older sister, Rebecca, runs a farm in Borodino, New York, and David refers to his host of nieces and nephews as his "squad".
