We spent eight weeks driving around Italy and exploring this European treasure. It was a fantastic experience. We visited some of Italy’s top sites, but we also went off the beaten path to lesser-known locations.
It’s a fascinating country with such an incredible history. Everything from its cuisine to its landscape is extraordinary (Italian is my favourite food). It’s a country to visit if you’re a European dreamer interested in culture, art, history, fashion, food, and of course, wine!
Let’s not forget about the wine! The country is well-known for its beautiful rolling hills within the Tuscan countryside. We spent two weeks driving around Tuscany, trying the local wine and cuisine. It was amazing.
