Fierence/Florance After an exhausting evening in some pub, we left Empoli at 8.30h by train. Going to Florence. In the morning we would have a guided tour through the city together with the Italians, but in the afternoon the Italians would go back to Empoli (they had to follow some lessons). And …

A chronicle of the 3-4 months I spent travelling around Western Europe over the summer of 2004. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed the experience of it.

Just some pics of my travels...

I went backpacking for one month through out western Europe. I visited London, Paris, Barcelona, Nice, Florence, and Rome.

trips i am taking in italy

My last trip to italy was three years ago, when my brave mother organized a vacation in tuscany for herself, her two daughters, her sister, and her mother in order to celebrate grannie's 70th birthday. that's a lot of estrogen but it was grand. we rented a terrace apartment in the country, then drove around to san giminiagno, florence, sienna, barberino, and also rome. most important thing i learned for next time: florence needs to be experienced in the arms of a lover, not your grandma :-)

florence is awesome!  our first day it rained all day and night but it was warm while it rained.  so no harm no foul.we walked over 800 steps up to the duomo and back down. that was about all we did all day being that we were spent.  definitely worth the hike for the great views of t…

I returned to Tuscany with my friend Sam. We stayed in Castellina in Chianti, and wandered the neighbouring towns.

You gotta love low-cost airlines. For £50 return each Lou and got away for a nice weekend in Florence

Florence, Venice

  Bongiorno from Florence! And by Florence I mean the Italy one (as much as I like Alabama). This is quite a small and beautiful city, although you will pay top dollar to stay in a hotel or shop at the expensive stores. Our hotel is a little “less nice” than some of the others we’ve sta…
