Hi ho hi ho..it's off to the Alps I go!

 After spending a day in the Tuscan countryside, I was up in the wee hours of the morning to set off on yet another great adventure. Destination: The Italian Alps, Lake Garda and Verona.

 Driving through the Alps of Italy was nothing short of spectacular. Our first stop was Trento, a quaint and winsome city cupped between the Dolomite mountains. The town and scenery it offered was incredible; snow capped mountains, trickling rivers and streams, medieval arches and alleyways, it seemed almost surreal. Our day was spent off the beaten path as we hiked our way through the dense woods and towering mountains.

 The next morning, we made our way to the largest lake in Italy: Lake Garda. When it comes to beautiful lakeside scenery, stunning mountain backdrops and picturesque towns and villages, Lake Garda is a breathtaking sight not to be missed.

After a wonderful couple of hours by the lake, we headed for our last destination: Verona.

 There are so many self-proclaimed cities of love – Paris, Venice, and even Florence have been some of the most romantic destinations, But to visit the birthplace of Romeo and Juliet is something most of us would have to have on our bucket lists.

 Verona was like a step back in time and really captured the true history of Italy.
