Taking in a football match in Italy was a first for me, this wasn't Milan, Juventuus or Roma but make no mistake the Italian fans are as passionate about football as any other nation on the planet. This was a serie "B" league game, it wouldn't be on international tv or make the newspapers sports pages of other countries but for me it was a superb experience. The day started early, I was staying approx 100 miles south of Rimini and needed to get the train. I was up in good time, a quick …

The terrible duo, made up of my Mother and Sister were over to visit and obviously wanted to hit the beach seeing as in Ireland summer=RAIN.

Since the whole point was to lay on the beach (yes, I'm not sick of it yet!), I decided to make a change of plans. Since I'm close enough and I don't care if it's rainy in Venice, that where I'll be heading tomorrow. Craig, the guy I was on the train with today, mentioned a hostel in Rimini named the Sunflower Hostel, that where I ended up. The brochure s…

Back to my first proper trip abroad, interrailing across France, Italy and Spain

After seeing Southern Marche, we returned to the region again to explore the northern part. We were not disappointed. We also visited the Republic of San Marino, an independent state inside Italy. It's a beautiful state worth driving up to.

SORRIDI E SENTI LA LUCE COME ILLUMINA LA VITA!
