    Travel To Italy: Dolomites - Florence - Lake Como - Cinque Terre - Rome (pt. 9 of 8 weeks of fun)

    Free Guide Linked Below ⬇️ Welcome back to another episode of Ma I’m Fine! This was the 9th and last stop on our quarter-life crisis trip. In pt. 1 of Italy, I share my solo road trip through the Dolomites, including epic hikes like the Three Peaks and Cadini di Misurina, tips for renting a car, and why public transportation doesn’t cut it. Next, I spent time in Florence. I loved visiting the Uffizi and seeing incredible Renaissance art. From there, I head to Lake Como, exploring villas (including the Star Wars villa!) and all the beauty Lake Como offers. After Lake Como, I trained to Cinque Terre, hopping between colorful villages and soaking in coastal views—despite the famous coastal walk being closed due to a landslide. This episode wraps up with my return to Rome, where I celebrated Halloween, partied until sunrise, and reflected on this unforgettable Italian journey. Pt. 2 of Italy will pick up with an au pair interview with my friend Sam, who moved to Spain for a year, one last wild night out in Rome, a cooking class, and the insane journey home. I hope this episode inspires you to go to Italy and helps with your research phase!
