Evaluation of Florence

This somewhat unusual tour was born from the desire to visit more cities in a week on a limited budget and perhaps even from the need to distract myself after a romantic breakup.

The journey began from Cagliari, which is the capital of Sardinia and a city with two distinct souls, on the one hand the historic center full of restaurants, bars, museums and clubs full of life even in winter and on the other hand the bathing area completely separated from the city heart with beautiful beaches but crowded in summer and with many equipped establishments.

In the surroundings there are Quartu and Sestu, two interesting locations not only for what they offer but also for the meaning of their names that indicate the distance in kilometers from the center of Cagliari, a curious detail that tells how much the local culture is present in the territory.

I found the people in Sardinia friendly, welcoming and always available even if I had a small misadventure in a rather elegant bar in the center where they complained because we were missing seventeen cents at the time of the bill, a grotesque scene that did not change the positive impression I had of the city.

From there we moved to Pisa, the city of the leaning tower that I had heard described with enthusiasm but that left me a little perplexed, the center is pleasant and lively full of students, bars and clubs but the general perception was of poor security with drug dealers present even in broad daylight and unclear situations, maybe it's just a matter of habit but I didn't feel completely calm.

The last stop of the tour was Florence, a wonderful city that I would have liked to live better but unfortunately during my stay I lost my identity card and this conditioned the whole experience making me more distracted and less present.

Florence, however, has impressed me for its clean, well-kept and rich in history historic center, for the vitality that you can breathe day and night and for the ability to mix elegance and authenticity in every corner, a negative note on the prices that are not among the lowest but you can still eat well without spending a fortune paying a little attention, I would gladly return there more calmly and without unforeseen events to finally give it the time it deserves and live it to the end.
