i was a realy little kid when i went there so i dont remember much.

go to florence, take a tour of this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Maria_del_Fiore, most amazing walk of your life to the top of that dome.

personally, i think vince is overrated, the whole place smells like sewer

go to the coast, slay some of those hot Italian hood rats.

ok so i went to italy 2 summers ago and it was sooo fun its amazing. anyways a must visit is Cinque Terre. Its super nice and if you are thre in the summer when its warm you can swim anywheres, the water is so clear too.

Second place to be would be Lake Garda, huge lake with all nice houses around it with beaches evrywhere and topless europeens haha, also a must visite and a good thing to do is camping beacause its cheep

Try to go see a derby footy match if you can (possibly Roma and Lazio). Also, make sure you bottle as many I-Talian cunts as you can.

I went to Italy for 3 weeks when I was in 5th grade.
I think we did:
Tuscany
Rome
Pizza
Florence
Napels
Sicily
and maybe a few others.  Tuscany is sick though, you definitely gotta to there.  There are some cool little towns in the surrounding countryside.

I'm living in Italy at the moment if you have any questions pm me.

Rome, Cinque Terre, Torino, Milano, if you want skiing any skiing around Sestriere is amazing, Portifino, a lot of places around are really good but it depends what you are looking for and which part of Italy you will be in.

If you are into nice clothes, start saving your money now because you can get awesome stuff for dirt cheap over there.  Visit Naples and Rome for sure, and as long as you hit those you can't really go wrong anywhere else.  If you have 3 months to work with I would head north for a while too, bring those skis into a few different countries.  I have 6 countries under my belt for skiing, and like 20 something total just because they are all so close together.  Oh ya, if you go to a nice restaurant, go at  9 and plan on being there a long time.  They like to serve 4 or 5 amazing courses and take their time, and most people eat late.

also, after all those big places, take the time to see a little town that you've never heard of, they are the coolest things. everyone knows each other and there's usually some amazing views of just the country, maybe an old castle you can walk through or a little festival. some of my family lives over there and my favorite place was their town. oh, and venice is unreal. definitely go visit there.
