Recently, we’ve been travelling to Italy once again and we decided to drive from Rome to the lovely Montefalco, in the region of Umbria. The town is about 2 hours from the capital and the road to get there is pretty nice as well, featuring some panoramic view of the Flaminia, the old road built
It’s always good to get out of this city from time to time and so we decided to head towards Moreton-in-Marsh to experience the greatness of Cotswold and true English countryside.
