Incredible Italy

Buongiorno!

I travelled to the beautiful Italy in the month of September, and spent a few nights in Rome, Florence, Venice and Sorrento. I went as a part of a tour so stayed at hostel like places, however I do recommend Camping Roma in Rome. I thought it was a fantastic location to be in Rome as you were a little bit out of the city, and therefore the chaos. The hostel was great for meeting new people, drinks and some traditional Italian food.
My favorite part of Italy was the Amalfi Coast, which is listed in the top ten drives in the world. I can’t even begin to describe how beautiful the views and scenery was. There was not much to do along the drive but take in the breath taking views, and it was nice to be away from the hustle and bustle of Rome.

A word of warning though, Rome is notorious for pick pocketers, so make sure you keep your passport, money and important items close to you. Children with cardboard signs hover around tourists in order to distract them while they take their wallets. They are surprisingly good at it!
When going to Italy, your trip wouldn’t be complete unless you tried some traditional Gelato and Pizza. To tell if it’s good gelato- the banana and pistachio flavours are pale in colour and not brightly coloured.
