Italy

Italy was amazing and i'm not just talking about the guys. We worked our way up from Bari, Italy all the way up to Venice. Southern Italy was so warm and beautiful along the coast. Crystal clear blue water and nice rocky cliffs. My favorite spots were Amalfi coast and Cinque Terre. They were both small cities where you definitley got to know how the locals live. One of the best hostels we stayed in was in cinque terre where we had to climb over a 100 steep steps to get to our rooms. It sucks when you have an extra 20-30lbs on your back. What a workout especially for the buttocks. But the view from the hostel was spectacular with the village and coast right out your window. It was awesome to hike through they're National Park along the coast and walk through the 5 towns along the trail. Definitley worth the walk through the hot humid weather. The beach was amazing with warm water and nice soft sand. Florence was a blur since we got hardly any sleep but i did enjoy hanging out with a few italian guys at a local bar and visiting the statue of David. Rome was an amazing city. We pretty much walked the whole city in one day. The sites and bust of the city was crazy. The Vatican was even more spectacular inside and out. It was a definite history lesson right in front of me everyday. My favorite part of Rome was the Colosseum and fountains at night. We just left Venice and are now headed to Slovenia. I'll miss Italy but on to new adventures
