Cinque Terre is known for its regional wines, which are sold in nearly every store in each of the five towns.

Eric says:
Pickpocketing is a really big problem in Rome, and the thieves are
often pretty sophisticated. They dress up like normal tourists or
businessmen and sometimes rely on misdirection. For instance, my
roommate told me a story about how he was riding on the Metro, and
someone grabbed a lady's purse …

Altura è l’associazione sportiva nata dall'idea di alcuni ufficiali della Marina Militare, esperti velisti, che nel 1991 hanno deciso di sfatare un mito: quello secondo il quale la vela è uno sport riservato solo a pochi e danarosi utenti.

I personally feel that tours are not really need in Rome. The public transportation is pretty decent, and the city itself is not so large that you cannot walk across a good part of it.Most of the ancient Roman sites are located in a fairly small area, known as the Roman Forum. If you can take a bus …

The fertile countryside, the mild climate (due to the large lakes), the great variety of arable produce which can enjoy alpine micro-climates as well as the Po’s climate, have allowed a variety of the gastronomic offerings as large as the dimension of the territory. It is enough to think of Gardaâ…

If anyone is interested in studying abroad, I'd definitely recommend Italy. I studied abroad in Rome for 4 months and had a great time. The people can be a little rude, but you can't beat the history that Rome offers. I went abroad through the University of California Education Abroad Program (UC EA…

I travelled from Berlin to Malpensa in 2003 after the ITB Fair ended, to meet my boyfriend Peter.

Not everything on a bus tour is hectic and fast paced, and luckily for us one of the slowest paced things on this tour was dinner in Venice and then a slow stroll around to St Marks’ Square. Venice at night is just plain romantic. The pigeons are gone, the crowds are much smaller, the lights twi…

There is plenty to do and see, I highly recommend taking your time and enjoying what you see. Take a tour of some of the surrounding towns, it is a great way to see the countryside and how living is more traditional outside the city.

Gaeta, Italy is located on the west coast about 90 minutes south of Roma. Most of the year, it is a sleepy coastal village of less than 50,000 people ( if one believes the last census ), but in the Summer months, it becomes a throbbing packed-to-the-rafters holiday hotspot.
The beaches become very …

•If you are only visiting the city of Florence you should rent a car and drive through the Tuscany countryside one day. You can find a lot of rental car places on ?. One of the two cheapest places that we found was Auto Europe. 50euro for the day 8am – 8am. We got a small car, Twingo. But i…
