When you do what we do, everyone you know and their mothers ask you to help them with their trip to Italy. This is great, I love Italy and I want everyone to experience the real Italy<\/strong>,<\/i> so I try my best to help my friends-boyfriends-cousin plan their perfect trip to Italy.<\/p>\n

Recently, a friend of mine had some time off of work and some credit card miles to use and asked me if he should go to Italy during this time off. Naturally, I said yes, that is the only answer to that question. What followed surprised me a little bit but is not uncommon at all. He didn’t know anything<\/em> about Italy. <\/strong><\/p>\n

He asked what the weather was like in Italy in November. <\/em><\/p>\n

Italy is an entire country with many different climates. It could be snowing in the north, raining in Florence, cloudy in Rome and sunny in Sicily all at the same time.<\/p>\n

Other questions like “where should I go?” “What is there to do in Italy” “What are some places in Italy” “Do I need vaccines or a visa” and “What is the Vatican” are also questions we get asked a lot. So I am going to give you a crash course on Italy and answer all the questions we get asked, just in case you’re wondering, too.<\/p>\n
