Oh man, the first time i went here was amazing. I only visited Venice and Verona but it was so breathtaking. My original destination was Rome, but who can pass up a visit to Venice! It was amazing and i still plan to see more of Italy. But the point is, Italy is so beautiful it will inspire you to learn more. I have now taken Italian classes(language and culture). I feel truly blessed to have experienced such beauty and the kindness shown by the people was heart warming.
