Day 4: Verres to Pont Saint Martin
I går, Italien ⋅ ☁️ 8 °C
I woke this morning to a fully overcast sky and light rain. I got to test out my new poncho, which will be known from now on as the "Great Pumpkin" (I'm a Peanuts fan) as that's exactly what I look like with it on. It did the job perfectly, and even though the wind was bracing, I never felt too cold (or hot). Today was one of those perfect walking days (26 km), even with the rain, I was filled with joy all day. There is something magical about the ever moving mist and low-lying clouds around mountains. Oh, and I got to walk in the valley itself and for some time beside the river. Everything was lovely. It was quite a steep hike to my accommodation, but it was worth every step. I listened to the book "A pilgrimage to eternity: From Canterbury to Rome in search of faith" by Timothy Egan, which was recommended to me by Andrew from Victoria whom l walked a little of the VF with last year. We reconnected a couple of days ago, and he's about a week behind me on the VF as he restarted in Switzerland. Anyway, I would highly recommend the book, especially for anyone who was raised Catholic.Läs mer

Wir sind wieder unterwegs 😃
25 april, Italien ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C
Endlich ging es heute wieder los 😃. Wir sind auf dem Weg nach Bella Italia mit Venedig, um dann von dort mit der Fähre nach Griechenland zu reisen.

Nachdem heute Feiertag in Italien ist, war der Brenner als auch die italienische Autobahn frei von LKW's 🚚 🚛 und wir sind super durch gekommen. Nach einem kurzen Einkaufsstopp in Sterzing beim Superspar mussten wir einfach die leere Straße nutzen und noch bis Trento weiter fahren 😉. Morgen sinds dann nur noch 200 km bis Venedig und wir freuen uns schon sehr 😊😊😊Läs mer

Day Thirty: Venice
14 april, Italien ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
Today was the classic Venice experience starting with some Gondola. We almost didn't do that because we both thought it was a cable car... I'm glad we did because now I can say I have! We also had to take specific photos around venice for a little competition, which was a total blast! I do love the romance one, ahaha. We had some spirtz as well, and we played a game called Buffalo where if you don't drink with your non dominant hand, you have to finish your drink. Our buddy called me on it twice in a row... I had a good time here as it was very beautiful but we were stuck there for 8 hours... I ran out of stuff to do very quickly, and I was bored out of my mind while feeling like ass. Turns out it was also allergies because I took a pill right before we left, and I felt way better. Wish I took it sooner...Läs mer

Day 3: Chatillon to Verres
25 april, Italien ⋅ ⛅ 10 °C
A shorter walk today (21.73 km). The guide said it was challenging, and I was finding it easy! I even joked to myself that the end section was going to have to be tough to warrant the designation. Well, truer words have never been spoken! The last 6 - 7 km was an absolute howler. I didn't help myself by going the wrong way up a really steep incline only to have to turn around and retrace my steps to rejoin the Way! What a dill. Not long before I reached Verres, I was telling myself that there was no way this was the original pilgrim route when there was a perfectly flat and reasonable valley below to walk along LOL. I met an Australian this morning, Ann, in Chatillon. She now lives in Mexico and has walked all the way from Santa Maria di Leuca. When I asked why she chose to walk the VF in reverse, she replied that she had started in Rome, hated walking with the sun in her face, and then made her way to Santa Maria di Leuca. I believe she will finish today in Aosta. What a legend! I wore my skirt for the first time today (my standard for Part 1 of the VF). I had my tights underneath but took them off after the first 2 km - it was another sunny day and the sun is warm.Läs mer

Orvieto, Italy
25 april, Italien ⋅ ⛅ 55 °F
Sadly, our last day of vacation, but we are having a day trip to Orvieto before driving to Rome to board our plane home tomorrow.
The first good thing that happened is that we both found something to wear that was relatively
clean and still fit after all the bread and pasta we’ve consumed.
The Duomo in Orvieto is magnificent and highly ornamented. It was a busy city with lots of people enjoying the beautiful day.
We parked in the tightest parking spot I have ever seen. Much maneuvering got us into a spot before we realized that we somehow needed to get out of the car. A very tight squeeze with us completely holding our breath got us out.
We will leave Italy dreaming about the next visit here.Läs mer

Day 2: Aosta to Chattillon
24 april, Italien ⋅ ☀️ 5 °C
Today was a long one (30.6 km) and the hardest walk I've done in a long time. I don't mind admitting that I'm sore all over. I literally took the scenic route - there were so many amazing things to see, and I took advantage of every photo opportunity. I'm sure it delayed my arrival, not to mention all the breaks I took, which let me soak in the views and was worth any delay. The Way today ranged from sealed road (a fair bit of that) to goat tracks. Again, I walked alongside an irrigation canal (the Ru Mazod). As you can imagine, there is a good amount of water around here. One bit of excitement: a dog came at me. I must have startled it when I suddenly appeared around the corner. I gave it a fierce stare and said "no" in my bossy voice, and it backed right off - what a relief. Funny, lots of dogs barked at me in France (even a goose had a go), not one dog that I recall barked at me in Switzerland, but here in Italy, the dogs seem to be territorial as well. One last thing; Saint Christopher is a big deal around here!Läs mer

Day 1: Echevennoz to Aosta
23 april, Italien ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C
I had the most delicious meal last night in the trattoria a few steps from my accommodation. The meal was cooked by my host Erik's parents. I ate my plentiful and also delicious breakfast to the sounds of Erik playing the accordion (video attached). What a wonderful way to start the day. The walk today wasn't long (17.53 km) but descended about 600m. My knees really felt it. The Way started right outside my accommodation and followed an impressive irrigation canal (Ru Neuf) filled with pristine water for quite some time. Then, I made my way down into the valley. It was a beautiful sunny day with the snow capped peaks changing minute by minute as the clouds moved across them. Aosta is a reasonably sized town so I gathered some food supplies for the walk tomorrow, took in some sights and visited both the Cathedral and a smaller church. Three things impress me about the Italian churches I have seen so far: the incredible variety and colour of the marble, the interior and exterior frescoes, and the detailed painting on the ceilings and arches.Läs mer

Padoue : La Nancy de la Vénétie
22 april, Italien ⋅ 🌧 9 °C
Dès mon arrivée Padoue, je suis rejoint par un ami de l'école : Olivier Bolze 🥰🫂

On se retrouve à la sortie du bus, et on se dirige dans sa coloc pour attaquer un debut d'apéro et se raconter nos aventures de 3A ! Puis on continue l'apéritivo en sortant dans la ville (sous la pluie 🌧😭) et en dégustant un Spritz qu'on s'était promis il y a longtemps.
On est rejoint par Lucie Hugonnet, et deux autres amies d'Olivier pour l'apéritivo, avant d'aller manger une pizza 🍕

Avec Olivier, ce fut aussi l'occasion d'en apprendre plus sur la ville de Padoue et son histoire, entre 2/3 vieilles anecdotes sur notre ancienne vie à Nancy !

Padoue est une ville qui a quelques points communs avec Nancy.
Déjà c'est la 1ère ville où je recroise des mineurs de ma promotion 💪
Ensuite, la ville était et est toujours une place étudiante de 1er ordre en Italie, avec l'une des plus vieilles universités d'Europe (1222), une grande concentration d'universités et d'endroits faits par et/ou pour les étudiants !
La ville est très dynamique, avec de nombreux événements et soirées, et ceux sur divers places préservés de l'époque du moyen âge et de la Renaissance !
Dernier point marrant : la ville est jumelée en France avec ... Nancy ! 🇫🇷❤️🇮🇹

La ville est aussi mondialement connu pour la basilique Saint-Antoine de Padoue, placé sur un territoire officiel du Vatican 🇻🇦 et haute-place du tourisme catholique.

La ville enfin possède des sites au patrimoine mondial de l'Unesco, comme les jardins botaniques de l'université de Padoue ! Jardins créés par Galilée pour les étudiants, et qui est encore aujourd'hui toujours gratuit pour ceux-ci 🌸

Bref, après cette belle soiree, je passe la nuit chez Olivier !
Le lendemain matin est l'occasion de visiter un peu plus la ville sans la pluie, notamment la basilique Saint-Antoine de Padoue et de se prendre un dernier caffe avec Olivier. Après ça, direction la gare pour prendre un train qui me permettra de visiter quelques villes vénitiennes pour le reste de la journée 🚄😉

PS : Merci pour tout Olivier, et profites bien du saucissonLäs mer

We had a private guide, neither of us can remember her name! We think it might be Louisa. She was incredibly knowledgeable, but once Richard encouraged her to talk about Cesar and history and the military, we completely lost interest. We visited the Argentina temples which were recently reconstructed after being uncovered in the 1920s. We walked by the Trevi fountain, which was ridiculously busy, we also walked to the Spanish steps(built by the French) , which were ridiculously busy. Meanwhile, she recommended many many places to stop and eat, but we ended up at the Emma pizzeria and Cucina, which had the best pizza ever. So. Good.Läs mer
