The Summary

I spent 7 days in Sicily and a day in Rome (and about a day in the air getting there and back). We toured all over Sicily (Ortigia, Siracusa, Catania, Taormina, and Agrigento) and our final night was in Rome. The trip was incredible! This was my first time leaving my home continent, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place to go.
