Travel Adventures in Europe

When we planned our trip to Italy we focused on seeing Rome and the Amalfi Coast and weren’t sure if we would make it to Venice. We visited Venice towards the end of our trip to Italy.

Ostia Antica is one of those gems you find on vacation when you’re not really looking. If you’re visiting Rome and didn’t get a chance to see Pompeii or even if you have visited Pompeii you will enjoy a visit to Rome’s ancient port city.

Vico Equense is a quaint fishing village about 15 minutes from Sorrento. This town has an absolutely stunning view of Mount Vesuvius. This view can be observed almost immediately after you leave the train station. We chose to stay here rather than Sorrento as our base for exploring the Amalfi Coast and did not regret this choice.

Italy has such amazing food it is a shame there isn’t more time in a day to eat. One of the best memories about eating in Italy was how many strangers we shared tables with, ate, and subsequently had lengthy conversations with.
