Needless to say Italy was amazing. We joined a 15 day tour with only 12 people using public transport and blending in with the local communities. Such a contrast to the large bus group tours which made all their participants wear orange scarves so they wont lose the group and they also had to hear the guide via headphones. We just had this really cool young italian dude who assisted us in orientating ourselves to each place we visited.
Now Im gonna tell the story of my travels on this blog in parts. And cause I dont have a great memory for detail, things are going to be slightly out of order. Venice was actually the last stop on our trip, but cause I have the most photos of venice Im starting with it. Its also one of the places I loved most cause it was so unique. No other city like it in the world. We only spent two days here (damn it! lol), but what I did see made me fall in love with it, and one day I will dream about going back to take more photos.
Speaking of photos.... Im convinced it is near impossible to take a bad photo of Venice, cause everything is so beautiful. Here are some highlights of Venice... starting with the gondalas... followed by the city landscapes...
This is my favourite cafe in Venice. Its where the hot barman tried to get me drunk on Baileys! ;-) lol
And below... me tipsy on Baileys... lol (got to remain anonymous lest I be recognised!)
My favourite jewellery shop in Venice. I love everything they sell as its so unique.
I bought the red glass heart necklace below cause I knew that I was in love with Venice straight away and was leaving part of my heart there.
I bought the red necklace top left from the shop mentioned.

Only issue with Venice was that the locals decided to have a train, bus and ferry strike on the day we had to leave for the airport. DAMN YOU! lol But fortunately, we managed to get a taxi to the aiport and flew to Paris.
Ahhh Venice.... I hope to visit you again one day..... sigh...
