» apartments Umbria

By China at 7:47 PM

On a recent trip to Italy, I got to stay in a beautiful little area of the country called Umbria. Umbria is located in central Italy just east of Tuscany. The source of the Clitunno River is considered a beauty spot and words can not describe it. It is hard to look away once you have experienced its wonder. Umbria is beautifully green with rolling hills and mountains as a back drop. The incredible landscape is truly a sight to see.

While in Umbria I was amazed at the incredible accommodations. There were beautiful Umbria villas and apartments in Umbria. I stayed in one of the luxury Umbria villas and I was wowed. Not only did I have my own private swimming pool, but a hot tub as well. It was a great way to leave the world behind and just truly relax in all the beauty that this region had to offer. The apartments Umbria and beautiful villas were just a small part of this incredible trip.

The food was out of this world. Imagine a world of Truffle and sausage, ham of wild boar (which by the way this was my first experience ever eating and it was fabulous), pastas and fish coupled with some of the most exquisite wine in the world. The tastes were so amazing.

There was also a lot to see in this region full of art and culture. The Basilica of San Francesco was one of the most authentic pieces of Roman architecture that I have ever seen in person and the panoramic views were awe inspiring. I also truly enjoyed Gubbio where you can climb a 487 m high Ingino using an aerial ropeway. I think that this is the most adventurous thing I did on my Italian getaway, probably the most daring thing I have done in my life. And to my surprise I actually made it all the way up. It was a little frightening, but I have decided that it is time to begin living life and experiencing all that it has to offer. Life is too short to sit in the wings, if you know what I mean.

All in all, my trip was quite an experience and I really had a great time. I would like to go back again, maybe some day. I don't like to go to the same place twice, I feel that once you have experienced something as incredible as this, to return again, will not give you the same feeling that the first time did.
