      Ah I’ve been there a good few times and seen North to mid-South on the west side. My first trip there with my wife (girlfriend at the time) was designed to impress. I booked the whole thing - We started at lake Como then down to Milano. Best pizza of my life, hands down.

      Other trips have included an F1 race which was so fun because Ferrari won with an Irish driver, Rome, Pompeii, Napoli, etc.

      My best friend growing up has Italian blood so I got shown around properly at a young age. Loved the vibe generally.

      Oh and there was one place called the five towns or something. Holy God. 👌

              Ha! Well fair play to you. I honestly didn’t realise it was that long ago and it was a pleasant surprise. I was still in college.

              We went out after and got absolutely polluted along with every Italian in the country.

            I have yet to explore Italy and other parts of Europe. I’m a big fan of British Columbia in Canada. Lots of beautiful nature to explore over there.

            But def love a lasagna 🤤
