IYKYK. And IKYK because everyone knows that there’s food and drinks in Rome and everyone knows it’s supposed to be really good but do you even know HOW good?? Because it’s really good. Go to Rome and eat and drink and then YK. 😋
Everyone’s so in a rush to get to the Mona Lisa that they forget to LOOK AROUND!
The Louvre is more than one tiny painting in an incapacitatingly crowded room. For example, they have these two Botticelli frescoes (and I don’t want to know how they got them to France so don’t even tell me) that are spectacular. And NO ONE IS LOOKING AT THEM. There’s the one dude—my husband, Steve Graham. Everyone else is rushing by to grab that selfie in front of Mona.
My advice is not challenging: take it slow, give yourself plenty of time, and you may just discover something new and absolutely stunning.
Perfect travel moments in Rome are 🔥
This is a wee slice of life in Florence, Italy. At exactly 8:00 AM on October 1st at San Lorenzo, to be exact. (Sound on for church bells, etc.) Florence looks perfect in curated content, but in reality it’s noisy, crazy, insufferable, crowded, and beastly hot in the summer. It’s also breathtaking, beautiful, fascinating, mind-blowing, hilarious, delicious, and charming af. At One Adventure Away, we’ll help set your expectations so you’re not shocked when Florence in reality doesn’t match up to Instagram Florence. And we’ll build you a custom trip plan for maximum enjoyment and minimum AAAAUGH.
Happy holidays! From One Adventure Away 🌟
