The Backstory
Italy has always called to me. After a decade, I weighed the pros and cons, and finally stopped making excuses.
Departure and Arrival
Sitting for a while and deprived of rest, my head snapped sharply towards sleep. “DO NOT MISS THIS FLIGHT!!”
First day in Florence
Seeing the Duomo in the distance for the first time, pinch me! I must be dreaming.
Wandering Through Florence On My Own
Backstreets and alleyways lead to unexpected discoveries before language class. All who wander are not lost.
There’s Only So Much Time
Piazza San Jacopino is the beating heart of a lively neighborhood and offers everything for living la dolce vita.
This Guy Comes Out of Nowhere…
A woman shouts, “Aiutami—he stole my phone!” Without hesitation, I started chasing a stranger down the street.
San Gimignano, Castellina, Monsanto
Our first excursion outside of Florence and into the rolling hills of the Tuscan countryside!
Wine Window and Santa Croce
After language class and lunch, most of the day is spent at the largest Franciscan church in the world. A must see!
Palazzo Vecchio, Gran Caffè San Marco, and Novecento
Skip the line access is well worth the cost. Especially if you go to Palazzo Vecchio three times.
