Open my heart and you will see
Grav’d inside of it, “Italy.”
Such lovers old are I and she:
So it always was, so shall ever be.— Robert Browning
Welcome! This is an online travel journal for my June 2014 trip to Italy, which covers the following destinations:
- Florence
- Arezzo
- Fiesole
- Monterosso al Mare
- Vernazza
- Rapallo
- Santa Margherita Ligure
- Camogli
- San Fruttuoso
- Portofino
- Pistoia
- Greve in Chianti
- San Gimignano
- Rome
- Spoleto
- Spello
Also, you should know that while I’ve embedded some photographs into the entries, many more are posted on Flickr, and travelogues for all of my previous trips to Europe are still available from the navigation menu, including those from Italy in 2008, 2010, and 2013.
Enjoy!
