Travel - Italy

In the summer of 2009, I embarked on a trip around Italy. I LOVE Italian food, wine, history... so I was stoked to go. I saw Rome, Pompeii, Sorrento, Florence, Venice, the leaning tower of Pisa and a few other random places in between. Rome was awesome, seeing the old Roman forums and the iconic Colosseum was beyond words. Pompeii had been a dream of mine to visit since I was a child, and it didn't disappoint. Sorrento was spent relaxing in the sun on a sailboat on a trip around Capri. There was so much artistic history in Florence, and the Tuscan hills were beautiful. And Venice, you can't forget Venice - an incredible city of narrow passages and lots and lots of bridges.

  1. Nice pictures. Italy is my favourite country by large.

    Please, next time you come to Europe make the effort to visit Seville, in Spain. You'll love it and will take beautiful pictures

    Best regards,

    Enrique
