Italy’s Hidden Secret

Bologna, Emilia-Romagna

With big trips to Slovakia & Zurich under my belt, armed with a new oxygen system it was time to extend the legs of the aircraft again, with a bucket list trip to Bologna, Italy. I had previously flown to Bologna a few times as a cabin crew, but I longed to return to Italy’s hidden secret.

With its breathtaking cityscapes, world-renowned food and untouched cultural architecture combined with the later summer warmth, this was a trip I longed for. What better way to do it than with my fellow friend, buddying photographer Andrew.

Switzerland is often described as a “heaven on Earth” due to its stunning natural beauty, picturesque landscapes with alpine snow peaks and high quality of life – but it’s also very expensive, even more expensive than Scandinavia. The plan has been to fly to Geneva or Zurich for the last couple of years so it was finally a ‘Dream come true’ to have the possibility come true.
