Last Updated on December 4, 2024 It’s been many years since my last visit to Florence – back when I was 14, holidaying with a school friend. I still remember those beautiful, cobbled streets, charming bridges over the Arno, and the aroma wafting from bustling pizzerias. Another visit was long overdue!
