Creating Memories Instead of Chasing Dreams
Before our Italian honeymoon kicked off, we squeezed in a day in London to reunite with an old university friend, then flew to Naples on 9,000 Avios to chase down the best pizza of our lives, visit Pompeii, and explore one of the world’s oldest cities on a tight points budget.
Leaving Milan for Florence, I enjoyed a scenic 1.5 to 2-hour train ride through Italy’s picturesque countryside, arriving at the historic Firenze Santa Maria Novella station. In Florence, I marveled at the Gothic splendor of the Duomo, crossed the iconic Ponte Vecchio, and took in stunning panoramic views from Piazzale Michelangelo. Next, I headed to Cinque Terre for a refreshing swim and planned to explore the Tuscan countryside with a local guide.
