La Spezia, Cinque Terre.

I have found a town that I love the most in Europe. And it is called Cinque Terre. Not many people know about it, but if you have the chance, please visit! It's in Italy and it's nearer to the North. It's gorgeous.

It's basically a town made up of five villages and each village has a different feel and architecture. That day when we went to explore we could only visit 3 out of the five due to time constraints, but that means I get to use that as an excuse to come back! Haha.

It's located just next to the sea so you get a wonderful breeze even though it's sunny! This was the first sight that greeted us


The first village we stopped at is Riomaggiore.


And this is where I took my current header pic!


If you're interested in short hikes there are paths you can take that lead further back! But we didn't get to plus I was in slippers.

So we took a short path that would lead us to the next town (forty five mins away by foot) and soaked in the peace and tranquility of the surroundings!

We walked past this bar that was supposedly for couples haha.

Reached the second village!


Here you can suntan too! 
The view of the previous village.

EXTRA LARGE BECAUSE IT IS SO GORGEOUS.

The seafood is SUPERB and fresh! Plus the food is relatively cheaper compared to other places (eg Venice and Milan)


I didn't photoshop ANY of the pictures.



Our little path.


The third village has more people swimming (but the water was SO COLD!)
That's not sand btw, it's actually little rocks and stones. Can be quite painful that's why everyone's using towels haha.
HAHA look at that fella in the background.

The menu, which is relatively cheap already!

PESTO LASAGNA IS DELICIOUS!


My seafood pasta YUMMM I was enjoying it thoroughly but also gulped it down.

Even their olive oil and vinegar tastes better.


It was starting to get foggy plus we had to take a train back (and walk quite a bit to our hotel) so we left at about 9.30pm while the sun was setting.


Please please visit it's so so beautiful! :)

Florence Sights

10 euros that killed us.
I was super pink. Onepointfive litres shared among 3 people for dinner eh!

Florence is amazing just get lost along the streets!

Florence!

In Florenzia you have to try florentine steak so that's what we had!






steak but in cream sauce SUPER MEGATRON DELICIOUS.




i don't remember what this is called! i know it looks gross but its a local delight and it's delicious!

from this restaurant :)

Leaning Tower of Pisa!

Pisa is actually a very small town and you can cover the major sights in less than 2 hours, we spent about 3 hours there because we were camwhoring with the Leaning Tower. The camwhoring shots are on Ant's cam because he has a cam with a swivel screen. Perfect for cam whoring.

The map of pisa!

This is the train station when you come out of Pisa!

This wall is famous! I don't know why. But it reminds me of something I watched when I was a kid.. but can't remember.. it just seems familiar.


Took some pictures of the architecture. The buildings are really unique to a city, and are very different from those in Rome.

Some amazing graffiti


A super cheap shop! I went in but.. couldn't find anything I liked.

Finally we've reached! The main attractions! We didn't enter because it's not free and the queue was mega long.

This is also not free and the queue is also very long so no. I guess if you want to go in then you'd take longer than 3 hours at Pisa haha!

Looks so grand! Oh what's that on the right? :P


The Leaning Tower!!

 Just some of the stupid poses you can do with the Leaning Tower!

The sky was sooo blue!
