Day 11 - Venice to Rome

Finally heading to Rome, our last stop! Also the hottest place with the best weather which was a great way to end our trip. The journey from Venice to Rome didn't take too long and luckily it was just one train. Once we got there we headed to our Airbnb which was around 20 minutes away from the station. The person we met there was so lovely, he gave us so much useful information too. This was my favourite Airbnb of them all, it was so cute and we had our own kitchen finally. The only thing I hated about it was the place it was in, just part of the area was full of men who would constantly stare at us. We're two young girls traveling alone so it was really off putting, we had an incident on the last day of these 2 men staring at us that we had to walk past 3 times as Jamey forgot her purse. I filmed them and Jamey stuck her finger up at them but they made me so angry I felt so uncomfortable.




Anyway, apart from that Rome was lovely. We went exploring straight away and headed towards a supermarket and then the Colosseum. It only took around 20 minutes to get to the Colosseum which wasn't bad at all. We ended up doing so much walking this day going past loads of beautiful buildings and having dinner at Piazza Navona.

Day 9 - Bern to Venice

We started traveling around midday to get to Venice. We got a train to Milan and then changed to a train which went straight to Venice. We arrived when it was dark so didn't do much that evening. The person who was supposed to meet us for our Airbnb was pretty late so we were sat waiting but the room was decent for 2 nights. We then went to the supermarket opposite us for snacks, had our first Italian McDonalds which was so good then headed back.

Day 10 - Venice

We only had one full day in Venice so we had to make the most of it. We got the bus which only takes around 10 minutes, I didn't understand the whole ticket thing or where to get tickets so we actually went on for free by accident. We got off the bus and followed where everyone else was going. Straight away we were met by a beautiful canal. Every corner you walk around is another canal. It was so pretty I loved taking lots of photos. This was also the first place we actually had decent weather, lots of sunshine and 24 degrees weather.

Day 5 - Amsterdam to Bern

If you're just seeing this blog post now, I am writing about my 2 week Europe journey and this is part 3. So if you're wanting to catch up the first 2 posts are already up!

So this journey was the worst of them all. This is where everything went wrong. We had a super long train journey that went from Amsterdam to Basel, then another train from Basel to Bern. We got on the train and for some reason it wasn't showing a lot of the stations. It said Basel on the sign but the stations only went up to one called Karlsruhe. Everyone started getting off as it had terminated so the panic set in. We asked a man who told us what to do, we had to get on a train that went to Rastatt, then we had to wait for a bus for ages that went to Baden Baden, then a train from there to Basel. It took so much longer but we made it! Just got stranded in Germany for a little while, so that was an experience.

Eventually we arrived in Bern, we had to get some change to use the tram, their money is so different to ours. Our Airbnb was a few minutes away, super easy to get to and right underneath one of the bridges. We was knackered from our travelling so just walked around the city and got some McDonalds.
