RE: Chilling out in Procida, Italy

If it's a first trip to Italy, I guess you should tick the Milan and Rome (and Vatican) boxes.

Personally, I like Tuscany, we spent a week there some years ago, based in Sienna, and did day trips to other places. I have a summary of my trip here if you're interested. The area is between Milan and Rome making a nice stop over, and easy to fly in and out of the country from America and the two large cities.

Venice is also famous, but I have no desire to go; it seems very overrated and too touristy.

Hope you can make a trip sometime, it's a nice country, I like it a lot

Thanks for the link! That will be really helpful for future trip planning. I've heard great things about Florence as well but it's so tough to see everything in one trip. I don't have much desire to see Venice either—we try to avoid places that are overly touristy. Did you experience any trouble on the streets with scammers? I've heard that's getting worse in Italy. I appreciate it! Most seasoned travelers I've spoken with say Italy is their favorite but I've also heard that traveling Italy isn't for the faint of heart due to irregular train schedules and such. I'd definitely be up for it at this point in my life!
