Welcome back to Dramatically Expatic! In this video, we're going to Florence and I'll show you how to spend a day in Florence without spending too much money. In fact, I'll have only 20 euros for a day in Florence - and I want to show you that you can spend even less than that on food, entertainment, museums and views in Florence. So if you're a budget traveler and you want to see affordable Florence - I'll show you that Florence on a budget is possible.

ABOUT:
Hi! I’m Valeria and I’m an expat in Italy. I’ve moved here (almost) on a whim when my plans in Paris got ruined - without speaking the language and totally unprepared, but pretty sure this is gonna be an adventure of a lifetime! Moving to Italy has definitely had its ups and downs, but I love discovering Italian culture, Italian people and, of course, Italian food. Here I post regular travel vlogs, tips on expat life, moving to Italy, personal growth and self-esteem as an expat woman living abroad.

BIG thanks for this amazing video. No need to tell that life in general is getting expensive. Am Belgian, single lady and now I need to watch my money more carefully. Am not ashamed to say so. Nevertheless I do keep in mind to support Italian businesses. I do go out and enjoy eating at trattoria’s. Apart from that, yes I like to visit the things that are for free. So again BIG thanks for this video. People who are not single do not realise how life has changed over these past months. Am in Florence now and will definately enjoy your tips 🙏💖🌻

Hi Valeria - we just got back from Firenze, a city we have been visiting (apart from during COVID) at least once a year for the last 23 years. However your video has taught me a few things! I wish I had seen it before we left as we would definitely have benefited from your advice. Really enjoyed your video and will check out others.

12/31/22 I just wanted you to know that we just went on a Mediterranean cruise with just four hours in Florence. We used your video and actually found Il Bufalo Trippone ( it was delicious! And VERY busy!) and Gelataria dei Neri and had the yummy gelato there (even nice to know there was a free toilet there also!😊) we found the river Arlo etc etc. Thanks to you we were able to use our very small amount of time efficiently and we definitely want to return. Thanks so much for your insight and a frugal plan!! Love your channel.

Valeria, your videos are wonderful. This intimate (and affordable) day in Firenze was thoroughly enjoyed. I am much older than you... studied at the Academy of Fine Arts (behind David) when I was 18 years old. Now, decades later, I am preparing to sell my house and move to a small town in Tuscany or Umbria... looking forward to (tearfully) reliving the rich experiences in this wonderful country. I would love to know of any suggestions you might have in choosing a comfortable (ancient) small town situated about an hour by train from Firenze. I am so looking forward to returning to my favorite county... reliving this marvelous culture and immersing in the artistic expressions of such people as Giotto, Michelangelo, Perugino... and Dante.

Great to see a video that’s from a European.. and not throwing money around ,only staying in top hotels and only eating at expensive restaurants. because there is so much more to Florence than that.. The best places to eat and stay in Florence are not necessarily top hotels and Restaurants…!! And also someone that doesn’t feel the need to put Italy in the title, where else is Florence,or Venice or Rome …?🤷‍♀️ Edit to say ,you are so right about the Finocchiona Salumi.. we had it the first time came to Florence and it’s one of the first things we gravitate to when we go back… (like you a lot of visits) . and we brought a huge amount home ,, I now order it from an Italian online store for delivery…but certainly best eaten in Florence…🤤😊🇬🇧

Loved this video Valeria! Thank you for the great tips. I hadn't had that last church on my sites to see next year when I come to Florence, but now I do for sure! My tip for a cheap place and interesting experience is the Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella. Go in and take in the amazing smells. I purchased potpourri the last time I was there, and it still smells like Florence in my lingerie drawer 5 years later.

I'd recommend hotels/hostels in the area between Ponte alla Carraia and Ponte alla Vittoria (both sides of the river are great); Santa Croce area is also wonderful but might be a bit more expensive. If you're looking for something inexpensive but nice, try googling "casa per ferie firenze" and you'll see a number of religious housing (basically little hotels inside the monasteries) - these are budget-friendly and might be a really interesting experience!

Hi thank you so much for your help arriving March 29 staying three days in Rome and we are going by train to Florence we booked our iraly trip through a travel agency from United States. They book us everything the hotel the train ticket so they send us the train ticket, but it’s like voucher it doesn’t have a barcode or a scan, just the name of the train the couch number the seat number so how I’m gonna validate the ticket like how to enter the train station without barcode or scan thing. Shall I stay and talk to a ticket box person about it, or I don’t know what to do.

@DramaticallyExpatic Жыл бұрын

Hi, there won't be a problem to get to the train station, and you don't need to validate it if you have the precise time/couch and seat numbers, but I'd stop by the ticket box if you have enough time just to make sure everything is alright! Enjoy your trip ❤️
