AVIANO, ITALY

Ciaooooo!  What can I say about Aviano?  I lovely place for relaxation!  I love the Italian way of life...I loved the people, the scenery, and especially the food!  Italian food is incredible....I lived in Italy for about 5yrs and I can't emphasize enough how I enjoyed my stay in that country.  Also, Aviano is home to one of the best tattoo artist in the world: "Germana Pavan", and her shop is called "The PinkPanther"....If you ever in Aviano, Italy and want a tattoo of the greatest quality, stop by her shop! 

There are so many places to travel and see throughout Italy.  Aviano is in northern Italy, so I was a few hours away from Rome and Naples for which is southern Italy.  FYI, if you planned on staying in Italy like I did for a few years, save up! (The Euro has the dollar beat/gas is by the liter, not gallon)

Traffic:  Let's talk about...lol...unlike the interstates in the United States, they have the autobahns.  Autobahns are the equivalent to interstates, but the traffic is three times as fast.  So be very aware on the roads and if you're not an experienced driver, take the back roads.   They are more roundabouts than traffic lights, which I liked more because it kept the flow of traffic moving steady.  From what I seen, Italians can drive very aggressive and fast, so getting to work on time for me was never a problem.  I had a nice 325 BMW that could bend the curvy Italian back roads pretty well, and it also made weaving through traffic easy.

Italy is definitely a must to go to.  The whole way of life and culture of the Italians is wonderful.  Oh Italia!!
