Solo travel

Loved the trip to Tuscany so much so that I’m back only three months later. This time I’m close to the See and I’m having kind of a beech vacation; Last time I stayed close to Siena and I absolutely loved it. The nature is great, the people are very friendly and the food ist amazing

I went to Italy with a few friends when we did a travel programm for students. We visited Florence, Pisa, Porto Venere and Lucca. It was an amazing time there, the food was great and even in October it was still warm enough to dip your feet into the water. I would recommend always watching your bag tho near tourist attractions.

Tuscany ist a very nice place, especially when you travel there after the tourism-time. You can see very nice nature and also nice citys....for example Pisa, Florence or San Gimignano. The food ist of course very good, especially the pasta and the ice cream. Overall I felt very safe, also in the public transports.
