On our way to Florence from La Spezia we decided to stop off at Pisa, to take the obligatory leaning photo before heading on to Florence. I’m glad we stopped off in Pisa if only because I will never have to go back there. It is probably a nice ... Read more >

Well, what a fun filled, exhausting, and beautiful weekend!
On Friday, upon arrival, we walked to our hotel. It was quite the walk with my duffel bag. The curse of this trip. Once we got to our hotel, we unpacked and rested for ... Read more >

I suppose it would be ludicrous to be in Italy and not talk about the food. I know it’s overdone (because, Italy , duh) but seriously, FOOD IS A THING HERE. A very serious thing.
