Umbria

Only here for a day to go see Assisi, but the scenery is really nice. It gives some great photo ops.

The websote I found by far the most useful when preparing for my trip was http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Gazetteer/Places/Europe/Italy/Umbria/map.html

We only stayed 3 days. Gubbio was a very good place.

my sort of ‘true home’ is here; the house my parents have had for 30 odd years and that i’ve seen every summer of my life since i was in my mum’s belly. :)
i love it to bits; perugia is an amazing city, and there’s so many more. and the countryside… well, what can i say, i grew up there, so i’ve got to love it (even though my mum’s gardening has a lot to do with it).
i used to hate going there as a teenager, because i would spend my summers alone; now i take friends from all over europe with me and we drink wine, swim in the pool in the middle of the night, play scrabble and listen to music, and it’s just great.
i think my best birthday (my 21st) was probably the one i spent in my house with some of my best friends.
i miss it, you know…

I wouldn’t mind a permanent situation
