You might think you've had pizza, until you go to Napoli. You might think you like ice cream, until you experience the heaven in a bowl that is gelato. Enjoy a glass of red wine then and now? The table wine in Rome will put your bottles at home to shame. Italy is absolutely full of experiences that will stop you in your tracks, and some of my absolute favorite among those - is food.
The best part is, the incredible food and wine is paired with some of the most beautiful vistas and historic places you will ever visit. Being surrounded by structures of such cultural and historic import is humbling, especially if you are used to commuting past strip malls and shopping centers.
If you time your visit well, you can experience the bucket list sites like the Coliseum and the Uffizi alongside the unexpected quaint countryside stops. I don't blame anyone for wanting to see the Roman Forum with their own eyes. Yet my bet is that the story you tell over and over when you get home is how you talked for 3 hours with the owners of a small winery near Montepulciano and fell in love with their dog.
In Italy, historic charm is integrated into modern every day life. There is a richness in the air that is practically palpable. Proffering up a culture that feels slower, steadier, and more focused on a balance of work and play. Now that's where you want to go for a memorable adventure.
