Walking In the Footsteps of Spartacus
We love history and yes, we’re a bit obsessed about the story of Spartacus and his army . Watched all the Spartacus and Gladiator movies. The Starz show was one of our favorite shows. If you’re looking to take a DIY tour of where Spartacus once walked you’ll need to go off the beaten path.

A Cat Lover’s Tour of Italy: Cats in Italy
I love cats. If you’re on this page you probably do too. On our visit to Italy we met dozens of kitties and took photos of them along the way. We met our first Italian felines at Torre Argentina Cat Sanctuary in Rome.

The City of Fountains: A Day Trip to Tivoli Italy
If you need a break from all of the tourists in Rome the village of Tivoli is a short train ride and feels like a world away. As a side trip from Rome we took the local train to Tivoli. It so happened there was a metro strike the morning we planned on heading to Tivoli. The strike was for four hours and we learned strikes in Rome are planned ahead of time. However, we were not aware of this particular strike. Like most mornings we walked to the metro to find we could not take the metro or the bus to Tiburtini like we had planned.

How to Get from Here to There in Italy
When we visited Italy we spent the majority of our time walking and taking the train. We did take a couple buses, we rented a car for a few days to explore Tuscany, and took a taxi once.
