Florence – It

There’s a (new?) flixbus line going from Luzern to Florence and Rome. And even though it was a public holiday, ticket prices were really good. The occasion to see a different part of Italy.

I had talked to an Indian guy on couchsurfing who wanted to rent a scooter together and drive around Toscana. When we met, though, he was into a much longer tour – something like 6 hours driving time – and so I ended up going alone: to San Gimignano for icecream with some viewpoint stops on the way.

Florence was crazy full of people. We had homemade pasta for lunch, walked around the city and then bought a bottle of wine and went up to the Michelangelo viewpoint. With some couchsurfers, we had aperitivo and a few beers near the hostel. And we managed to get Bistecca alla Fiorentina just before going back home ðŸ™‚
