After having an amazing time in Spain, it was time to go catch my next flight to France. Only costing me $46, it was less of a travel to get there since the flight was less than 3 hours. Arriving in Paris, I took a taxi to the hotel I would be staying at, the Hotel La Tamise.
Again, another beautiful hotel I was happy to be staying at. I arrived during the day and wasn’t so tired, so I decided to start touring around early to go sightseeing. The first place I decided to go see was the Luxembourg Gardens. The flowers surrounding the area made it so much more vivid, filling the grass with colors everywhere. IT was an extremely kid friendly place, including a fenced in sand pit and a merry go round where kids could catch rings and spin around all day.
The next night, I decided to go and visit the world famous Eiffel tower. I wanted to see it at night so I could see it with the lights turned on and really capture the beauty. For 15 euros, it was definitely worth the wait.
I was definitely going to get hungry in Paris, s one of the new things I decided to try was escargot, or snails! One of the best places to get escargot from is L’Escargot Montorgueil. They also have plenty of other choices to offer, incase I don’t end up liking snails.
After spending a long week in France, it was time to take my travels to my next destination: Italy! I took another flight to Venice, which cost me $35. When I arrived in Venice, I took a cab to the Hotel Moresco, where I would be staying for the last part of my journey.
The next day, I decided to venture out to see what Venice had to offer. I decided to visit Saint Mark’s Basilica. This is one of Venice’s famous cathedrals, so I wanted to see what it had to offer.
I can not just visit Venice without taking a gondola ride! So I decided to go for one of those next.
Being in the gondola gives you a different experience on how to view everything around you. It proved to be pretty spectacular to me.
Since Venice mostly has sights to offer, I decided to go grab something to eat and see how it would be. I was quite excited to try some authentic Italian food. I decided to go eat at Dal Moro’s since you are meant to take the food with you to go. The lines were quite long, but after receiving the food, I can see why. People are not lying when they say that pasta in Italy is better than anywhere else!
My last stop in Italy before my trip would come to an end was to go see show at Teatro La Fenice. I always wanted to see an opera show live, so I figured why not!
As my travels come to an end, I can say that I truly had a great time going from country to country and seeing many sights that most people spend their whole lives without seeing. It was a marvelous experience that I would definitely do again!
