Florence

Hey y’all!

So as most of you know Paris has come to an end and I am now experiencing the unfamiliar terrain of travelling around Europe by myself. I’ve already visited family in Germany and spent a few days in Valencia with my dad. Florence is my first travelling stop where I am well and truly alone, without a family member close by to bail me out.

I have liked it so far! The night before last I met three Americans in my hostel room, and we proceeded to go out to a bar together and pay too much money to listen to 2010’s bangers in a sticky, crowded room. We spent all of the next day together and went an artisan market, a Leonardo da Vinci museum, a lookout point, and an Irish pub, amongst other destinations. I was shocked at how easy they were to travel with and we got on very well as a group. As for today, they’ve all departed so it’s up to me to find something to do. I went to the archeological museum and saw some beautiful Etruscan vases, Greek bronzes, and (surprisingly) a robust collection of ancient Egyptian artifacts. Who knows what else I’ll do today, but enjoy the photos!Leggi altro
