First stop on our Italian Roadtrip was Venice. We stayed at the Hilton Molino Stucky which was a beautiful choice that I would highly recommend It had an amazing rooftop pool that was perfect at sunset. Definitely better than travelling as a backpacker! We did the typical gondola ride (how cliche) but couldn't leave Venezia without it! Loved all the masks in the windows and wish we could have caught a show.
They say this place is enchanting...I didn't see it the first time around, but I felt a dusting of it this time. The trick is to skip Venice in the day and explore it at night. Get lost in the canals, and let the city lead you. Maybe it was the fact that we discovered a little jazz bar with an amazing singer crooning Amy Winehouse. Maybe it was buying an umbrella from a stranger to shelter us from the light rain. Or maybe it was the fact that I was back with the love of my life. For one reason or another, I now realize why they say Venice is amore!
