Italy
I traveled around Italy during my first Erasmus, and it was basically a trip through history with amazing food. I got to see the ancient ruins in Rome, get lost in the canals in Venice, and check out the more modern vibe in Milan. Every city felt completely different, and the pizza was a highlight for sure.
