So for the next day of our multiple city per day Italian tour, Milan is up for lunch. Neither Sean or I really had much desire to see Milan because it's really just another big city and it's main attraction is the fact that it's the fashion capital of the world, which I couldn't care less about. But Milan is also home to one of the world's greatest cathedrals, in fact the Duomo in Milan is the third biggest church in the world. So as soon as we arrived to the ...

I'm really getting tired of typing this, but Verona is another absolutely beautiful city that you can just throw away the map and walk around the old city. Verona is well known for being the setting for Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, although the city is much different now than it was when that play was written.

However, we only have two weeks left on our Eurail pass, so we are going to be burning through cities very quickly now to ensure that we see as much of Italy as possible in only a weeks time, hopefully saving ...

For those that dont know, Transylvania is actually a region in Romania, located in the center of the country. We stayed at a city called Brasov, which is a pretty big city, but the old part of the city is very medieval and well preserved and feels like a small village. The old part of the city actually feels a little bit like Prague, its a fun city ...
