30 Days to London

      London is just one month away and there's so much left to do... mostly just little things. I got myself new suitcases for Christmas and went shopping for things I will need there. I got a new camera and I've found it helpful to read a bunch about Florentine life, and also about London's, since it gives one a sense of familiarity with the place. 

      I have started reading The civilized shopper's guide to Florence, by Louise Fili, and I find it quite handy as it includes important historical facts about Florence and how they influence its economy nowadays. It also brings maps and good advice when traveling to Florence.



      Also, I have read about Florence in Rick Steves' Florence and Tuscany, by Rick Steves and Gene Openshaw, which is a traveler's guide. It has a lot of information regarding Florence as well as directions and invaluable tips about getting around in the city.

 


      Best,
