In Florence we went to museums of art and science, saw the big sites, and walked through the city. As the birthplace of the Renessainse, Florence has a rich and significant past which easily shines through to this day.

Rome
We had a mixed experience in Rome. The city has an almost ridiculous number of ancient and important places and things. On top of the things we knew about, like the Colosseum and Vatican City, we found other less well known places that were nearly as or even more impressive.

We went on tours, walked the streets, stopping … Continue reading Amsterdam and Going to Berlin
