Country – Italy

What it feels like to be there…

Beautiful Italy is a place of style and substance. Being surrounded by art, fine dining, elegant clothes and exquisite architecture is to experience humanity at its finest, but nature still has a lot to offer too. Challenge yourself to paint a fresco scene or cross a picturesque mountain pass before surrendering to Roman-style decadence.

Some practical information worth knowing…

Rome and Milan are the largest airports in the country, but these days the cheap-fares airlines have opened up routes to lots of others. Onward travel overland by road is good, but train tickets, especially first class, can be really great value and offer a local’s view of Italy.  To really fit in, bring a stylish outfit for every occasion and weather.
