And the third day, today is my last day, I've decided to visit a small town near Perugia, called Assisi. As many of you may have already heard, the Saint Francis of Assisi is an Italian Catholic friar and preacher. He chose poverty and he was born in Assisi. It was a warm, sunny day, just a perfect day for sightseeing and traveling. That small town is full of tourists and small shops. I love the peaceful atmosphere in the city. The houses are restaurated with the scent of the past. The basilica of Saint Francis of Assisi is definitely worth visiting. Assisi is a medieval, charming town and I had a great time todayam going back home tomorrow.

After my breakfast at Il Vizio restaurant, I spent my day in the center of Perugia. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and my breakfast was good. I took the mini metro, which is a great thing and it took me to the center of Perugia. It was a bit cloudy that day, but not too much cold. 2 or maybe 3 hours later it started to rain. Oh, no! It was around 12:30pm, great, it's time for lunch! What do you say about a big and nice Margherita? The rest of the time I spent on shopping. I decided to have a dinner at Il Vizio restaurant, and I didn't regret. Such a nice day!

Perugia is a famous and charmed cultural and artistic centre of Italy. And guess what, Perugia is a city of chocolate. Eurochocolate, the famous chocolate festival, takes places every year in Perugia in October. I've decided to relax a bit, so I went to Perugia a few days before the New Year. I came around 3pm and around 4pm it was already dark. The hotel Quattrotorri with 4 stars was just awesome! My room was modern, big, and clean. The center of Perugia is really lovely. There are many stores (chocolate and fashion stores). Dinner time, yes but I didn't know which restaurant to choose. There are a lot of good restaurants, and it was really hard to choose one. All of them are traditional, rustic restaurants. The food was delicious. After the dinner I went back to the hotel to relax.
