Exploring the Lost City of Pompeii
Every single day we spent in the Amalfi Coast was a 'highlight' of the trip. There's honestly so much to see, eat, drink, buy, and learn about. But honestly, one of the top highlights of my trip in Italy was exploring the lost city of Pompeii, venturing to Mount Vesuvius, and being lucky enough to visit one of the most amazing wineries in the area.
The most comforting yet slightly unsettling thing for me to realize when touring through Pompeii, was that life 2,000 years ago is not too different from life today. The most amazing thing is that an entire city was uncovered and is still going through excavation today, providing complete insight to the day-to-day life of the ancient Romans.
