If you enjoy history, music and food, and have a chance to travel in Europe, I strongly recommend visiting Italy. The main reason is the variety of sights to see. There are many famous cities such as Florence, Rome, Milan, Venice, and the ancient city of Pompeii.
The highlight of Italy for me was Rome. You can truly feel a thousand years of great history right there. If you play a stringed instrument, I’d also recommend visiting Cremona. The master craftsman Stradivari was born there. There is also a museum of stringed instruments where you’ll learn a great deal and may even discover something new about music.
The food is just amazing! Everyone knows that Italy is famous for pasta and pizza, but what I’d totally recommend is having a taste of ossobuco in Milan. It’s like a beef stew and you eat it with saffron rice. The texture is so tender and it smells really good.
Also, be mindful of pickpockets while sightseeing, especially in crowded places like Piazza di Spagna and Fontana di Trevi. But, mostly, Italians are very gracious and they love their families and their freedom.
If you visit Italy, you’ll learn that life should be relaxed and that you should just enjoy everything it has to offer!
