#4 : Florence, Italy

Court: Piazza Massimo D’Azegllio

We made it to Italy! After an eventful week in New York, seeing shows on broadway and in night clubs, we packed into a bus and made our way to Boston to catch our flight. Before making it there, we spent the night in Connecticut, reconnecting with some amazing people I met on my last journey through Europe! We had a complete blast.

6+ hour flights followed by a 10 hour layover was truly brutal for us but Florence did not disappoint. I definitely fell in love with this city, the narrow streets surrounded by tall brick and stone buildings, the history, the art. Every part of our time in Florence was well spent and enjoyed.

We happened upon this court after stopping in at the Botanical Gardens in the City. When we came back later there was a game of football (soccer) going on and I was able to shoot around with a couple of locals, Arnold and Andrea.

Many thanks to Natalie for taking the video!! It’s nice to have a travel companion that’s willing to run around searching for basketball hoops with you.
