Traveling in Italy

When I arrived in Florence, the city felt like a living museum. Every corner seemed to whisper history—the echo of footsteps on cobblestones, the scent of espresso drifting from tiny cafés, the golden glow of the Arno at dusk. One afternoon, I climbed to Piazzale Michelangelo just as the sun began to dip behind the hills. Watching the city bathed in amber light, I finally understood why travelers fall in love with Italy. It wasn’t just the art or the food—it was the way time seemed to/Florence slow down, inviting you to savor every detail.

Read this before traveling to Italy 🇮🇹
✨ Cinque Terre - 8/10 Technically, it‘s not a city but five villages. Each village is colorful, unique and worth a visit. However, it can get crowded especially during high season. I would recommend to stay in these villages instead of during a day trip and to travel during shoulder season. ✨
