.so far



here is a little sneak peek of my trip. just one photo. sitting on the roof of the hotel in rome i was thinking i could really live here. its so beautiful! we have also spent some time in florence and we drove up the coast to the cinque terre (those 5 towns that you can walk between) they were amazing, possibly the most amazing places i have been. even though it rained all morning the seccond day they were still beautiful. im a little bummed that we didnt get to see much of tuscany though... but i wouldnt really change anything so far. the food is ofcourse soo good. we are off to venice today =)

p.s. hiring a car in italy is almost an insane thing to do... but more about that later. xx

.bye for now


.so i leave for italy tomorrow, did i mention im scared of flying? for the last week i have had butterflies.

.i may post -if i have time- some photos while im away

.see you soon =)
