Day Trip to Trieste

Hello folks!!


After a busy week with exams and a frenetic Friday night celebrating my farewell party of the Erasmus, it was time to make another trip, which by the way was totally unexpected. These are the best ones!!

This time destination was Italy, to be more concrete, Trieste, very close North-East Italian city, bordering the beautiful country of Slovenia.

After sleeping just few hours of the partying, if you do go party, you do it well (until the place closes down)I received a called from a friend suggesting to go to Trieste (Trst in Slovene), and in the Erasmus the most common phrase used is 'why not'. So that's what I said, et voilà, after 1 hour ride or so we were walking by Italian soil. Before that we stopped in the border, to buy some stuff and near by buy some sweets, which my Slovene friend stated that it was the best sweets shop in Italy if not in the world.
Anyway, after all that, we arrive to Trieste city, which happened that my friend new pretty well, like the palm oh his hand. So we were able to do shortcuts, and park near Catello di Miramare for free.

Beautiful place, surrounded by a stunning park, with ponds full of fishes, little and not so little duckies and some turtles wondering around.

After walking for a couple of hours, 'our tour guide' took us to Trieste city, to see how was it, with all the amazing building and the dock.

He was explaining some a little bit the city's history, and sorry for not listening to you much, but I was just enjoying the views. A while later he took us to the best gelateria in town. And yes indeed, the ice cream was one of the best I have ever tasted... so creamy !!

Following the schedule, we end up looking at the Teatro Romano right before sitting on the docks and rest for a while.

Later on he decided to took us to Torri d'Europa to do chill out for a while.

Well I can't say much about the city really, as beautiful as it is, to be honest, I didn't expect anything from it, so I really end up having a great impression of the city.

I think this will be the one of the last trip I make on Erasmus, since I am leaving in 1 week already.. time passes so fast !
