Florence, Italy

October 29, 2019

Florence was the second of four stops on my week-long fall break. This series is a bit longer as it was one of my favorite cities that I visited while abroad. The city was beautiful; my hostel was one street away from Piazzala del Duomo; the food was amazing—–I had a wonderful steak dinner paired with a house wine for 20 euros.
