Italy Travel Guide: Start Here

I love Italy, and this country tops my list of places I want to visit again – not only because there are still places to see, but I want to return especially to Rome. I’ve been to Florence, Milan, Trezzo Sull’Adda, Naples, Pompeii, and Rome – so far! From the history and archaeology, to the people, food, and general vibes, what’s not to love?

“Rome is not like any other city. It’s a big museum, a living room that shall be crossed on one’s toes.”
-Alberto Sordi, Italian actor
