A few days in Genoa
So, I've been spending a few days in Genoa resting before heading down to Rome and then to the deep south of Italy. Genoa is the hometown of Christopher Columbus who, of course, gets his own statue in Piazza Principe, which you see right when you step out of the train station:
There are also many beautiful buildings in the old city, but for the most part, the city is mediocre. I recommend choosing another place to rest and relax, if that's your plan for a few days.
My next stop: Rome, a pit stop on my day to Italy's extreme south.
