Travel News

How far did I travel this week?:

Within Rome, I travel about 6-8 miles a day. Most of this is done by walking, but I also use the bus and train to get around. Polignano a Mare is 288 miles from Rome. I arrived there on a train, and I left the area from the airport in Bari. 

How far have I traveled on this journey so far?:

More miles than I can count! I've been on planes, trains, boats, buses and cars all around Europe and even in Africa, too. I'm lucky to have traveled thousands of miles by now. 

How did I get around this week?:

I got around mostly by foot this week. I use the bus to get into downtown Rome, but then I usually walk to my destination from the bus stop. I used the train to get to Bari, a bus to go to Alberbello and Matera, another train to get to Polignano a Mare and a plane to return to Rome. Quite the busy weekend!

What was the most interesting place I visited this week?:

I visited Alberobello, which is a small village that is home to the famous white "trulli" houses. They look like homes for gnomes because they have pointy roofs. It was like I was in a fairytale town! 

Other Travel News from this week:

I planned my travels for next week! I'll go to Milan, Lake Como, Verona and Venice next weekend. These cities are all in the northern regions of Italy.
