Sunday, the 11th of September On Friday night we arrived quite late in Prague, and in true eastern European style got completely ripped off by a taxi driver. A lady we spoke to the next morning about it said that in Czech the word for taxi and criminals means the same thing. As they have a different currency to the euro we have gotten used to, we didn't realize until we paid the same amount for an eight minute taxi drive for the both of our accommodation for the...

Friday, the 1st of September Last night was one of the most uncomfortable nights of our lives, spent on an overnight train from Venice to Vienna, which left at nine at night and arrived in Vienna 8.30 the next day. We tried to sleep in a small cabin with four other people, where the seats would extend into a mattress type thing where six of us were cramped up on. We were interrupted every couple of hours by people repeatedly checking our tickets and passports. F...

In Venice we stayed in a campsite which was a lot more like a holiday resort with it's huge pool with it's own bar, gym, restaurant and pub. We stayed in a private cabin for only 15 euro a night! The only downside was "the chavs", a bunch of British bogans who were loud, rude and incredibly rowdy, they made us feel very old. The city of Venice however was absolutely amazing, and has definitely been my favorite city so far. The city was dissected with numerous can...

We spent four days in a campsite just outside of a small town next to the cinque terre called deiva marina.

We spent our days walking into town where there was the most amazing beach, surprisingly a lot nicer than the rocky beaches at the cinque terre. The beach w...

Since Sunday, we have been staying in a hostel in a beautiful small country town a two minute bus ride from the beaches of the cinque terre. We have spent our days swimming and laying on the rocky beach, also gone into budget mode and have been living off bread cheese and tomatoes. We have been embracing the Italian lifestyle, having a "siesta" every afternoon, which is basically a Nanna nap. We tried to go to Genova today to meet Sky but we were only there for ...
