"oh, the places you go."

time for an announcement:

we have a little trip planned.

okay, i lie... it's kind of a big trip.

we are going to italy!

i repeat, italy. 

i'll let you in on a deep secret of mine:

traveling to italy has been a big hope, dream and fantasy of mine.

in fact, lovebird originally booked our honeymoon there,

but i vetoed {quite literally, canceled} that grand plan back in the days.

shocking right? 

you see, back then i wanted to enjoy being newlyweds-  we were just barely mr. and mrs.

i wanted my new hubby all to myself as we relaxed on a beach after a crazy summer of wedding planning.

now however, i'm ready for the thrill of italy.

i no longer want to sit and relax on a beach with lovebird-

but rather walk the streets of italy until our feet hurt,

eat gelato until our bellies ache, 

and visit the historical museums, monuments and churches.

i want to eat pasta like lady and the tramp,

travel by train with backpacks making many stops,

and spend every waking minute laughing and exploring with lovebird.

obviously, i am still in the honeymoon/newlywed stage of life.

but, i'm completely okay with that.

what better way to spend our days being madly in love 

than in the romantic cities of italy.

we are beyond excited.

so now, let the recommendations and suggestions begin:

we are looking to anything and everything!

i'd love to hear about your trips, experiences and knowledge of italy!
