1,077 miles, 1 plane, 2 trains, 2 countries, 3 cities, 1 UNESCO World Heritage site, 4 museums, average of 12,000 steps/day, 238.54 UNDER budget for the week.
We have now entered the part of the trip we have been most eagerly anticipating ever since we started planning it: a month in Italy. The food, the art, the architecture. Everything is so incredibly old and rich with history.
This week we are challenged to adjust to the Italian meal schedule:
- 9 a.m. – breakfast: a pastry and coffee
- 10:30 a.m. – cappucino or espresso
- 12:30 p.m. – 2 p.m. – lunch
- 4 p.m. – gelato
- 6 p.m. – apertivo
- 8:30 p.m. – dinner
We have yet to integrate the full schedule, but we are determined to nail it before we leave Italy. The challenge seems to be in the evening: we’ll do either gelato + dinner, or gelato + apertivo, but never all 3. Only practice will help us to unlock the full feeding schedule.
