What do you do on your first night in Venice? Eat, of course! We made our way to a nearby restaurant, Ristorante Pizzeria Rio Nuovo, to eat alongside the canal at sunset. As I sipped on a glass of wine, I couldn’t believe my luck to have traveled to a destination I had dreamed about and here I was dining by a canal in Venice. Then as if I had planned it myself, a gondolier enters the frame on cue. The meal was perfect, the scenery was perfect, and Venice did not disappoint during this meal or during my stay. While some may think of Venice as a touristy destination, I had never visited and was glad to find an amazing destination filled with an abundance of quiet spots, great food, and wonderful people.
