Italia
europe's 4th most populous country and 4th largest economy. I visited Rome, Florence, Naples, Venice and Amalfi in 2005 but look forward to eventually seeing Milan too.
Italy is part of Southcentral Europe — a region known for its Mediterranean coastlines, warm climate and people, foods like pasta and pizza, Christianity and the Vatican, historic cities like Rome and Venice, and landmarks like the Colosseum.
