TO EXPLORE BEYOND THE TOURISTIC AREA

Rome has been amazing, but I had the chance to explore places such as Palermo in southern Italy, Torino, Udine, and so many cities that I definitely suggest you to visit at some point.


  • Rome
  • Perugia
  • Milan
  • Turin
  • Palermo
  • Venice

The best time to visit Italy is either from April until June, or from September until November.

I would suggest to avoid July and August due to hot weather and huge crowds.
