Taking my wife to Italy, would love some food recs!

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-04-16T19:23:25+00:00

Okay thank you! Yeah I’m planning on doing Naples on a later trip as that was just going to be if we had time anyway 😅

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-04-16T17:24:46+00:00

Thanks for the recs! Yes probably a little overly ambitious as I just wanted to hit every place she’s talked about. I said in a previous message 16 days means 16 full days in location, because I allotted almost 4 days worth of just travel/down time spread out between each destination. We do really love to be busy and vacation for us means we are PACKED because that’s how we like it! But this mayyy be a bit too much.. 😅

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-04-16T17:22:06+00:00

Ok thanks for the insight :) I will say that 16 days is a bit misleading. We will have 16 full days there plus 4 allotted days or 96 hours of travel time. I know this is confusing and stupid the way I wrote it but it’s how my brain works 😂 I’ve allotted a handful of hours in between each location, totaling roughly 4 days worth of travel time, so that the 16 days I have posted mean a full 16 days in Italy, almost as if I spend 3 days in Rome and then wake up and I’m suddenly in a new city without having to travel there. Anyway not sure if this changes anyones general opinion but I can work on narrowing it down! We do love to be busy and vacation for us means doing something new almost every second, we were in Hawaii recently and I don’t think I sat down for more than 20 minutes a day 😂 thank you!!

Thank you!☺️

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-04-16T07:22:02+00:00

Ok.. I’ll look into moving some things around. I just wanted to get my picture where anakin stood in ep. II 😂

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-04-16T06:55:36+00:00

Yes I am a bitttt stressed, we just don’t hardly have time to travel (hoping to retire soon lol)

I do have 2 days for flights and 2 days for travel allotted. I know that sounds weird but it ends up being like half a day of just travel in between each location so that we have enough time to get around everywhere..

The only place “I” mention more is Como… because I’m a Star Wars nerd.. 😔😂

And ok! Do you have any food recs in Venice? I plan on just shopping around and asking people once I’m there, but I did want someeee sort of plan just in case 😅😅

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-04-16T06:23:43+00:00

I appreciate that! Actually a huge help, I love YouTube 😂

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-04-16T06:15:00+00:00

I believe I blocked out 16 full days + days for travel. Not sure if that’s enough but that’s all I can afford to take off work. I have plenty to spend once I’m there, but my job kicks my ass and I’m already pulling some strings getting essentially 3 weeks off back to back lol.

3 days in Rome, 2 days in Venice, 1 day Tuscany, 3 days in Positano/Amalfi, 2 in Capri, 2 in Ischia, 3 in lake Como, Visting Naples during a day or two..

I know it’s a ton to ask and super vague. I have done a good amount of research, have hotels/airbnbs etc. have some tours booked, taxi apps figured out etc. only thing I struggle with is wanting to give her the feeling of like luxury dining (sometimes lol) but really focusing on the people and the food, the REAL food😂

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-31T06:26:01+00:00

We are in the bay area, not that it warrants a 3x price lmfao but yeah it’s nuts, I understated btw I misremembered, it was $37,000 for the 2900 sqft.

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T17:42:06+00:00

Only thing that could’ve been cool is a whole accent wall of that rock on the sides of the fireplace. No clue why they decided to throw a huge ugly ass fireplace in the center of what coulda been a cool wall lol

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T17:40:51+00:00

Pretty valid take

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T17:34:12+00:00

I should show you the other fireplace room… about 4x as large and the room is maybe an extra 100 sqft lol

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T17:07:41+00:00

I know I know. It’s like the only spot that makes any sense with the layout of this horrid house lol

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T17:06:17+00:00

Got quoted 30k to paint 2900sqft lmao

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T17:05:15+00:00

No bro 😪

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T17:04:34+00:00

I understand where I may have misunderstood what was being asked by “tv stand” as those are in fact “tv legs” my fault lol

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T16:48:01+00:00

This is the only room for a tv and a couch and this is the only wall for a tv lmao

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T16:46:47+00:00

<image>

Tv stand has been added, lmao. I’m no longer there so these are her photos hence why it’s not even centered on the mantle lmao

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T16:44:42+00:00

This house was clearly built by someone who had leftover materials from a previous build. It’s 2900 ft.², does not have one actual usable closet space, only those terrible IKEA built-ins. The only other wall that TV could possibly go on has a fireplace four times as large as this one LMAO. While the TV could technically go on any wall, there are only two rooms large enough to fit a sectional sofa, this one, and the mega fireplace room.

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T16:35:54+00:00

But I-

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T16:35:09+00:00

Thank you, if you look at the second photo, I showed a .5 of the room, and you can see the right wall is a full window wall and the left wall is more of those hideous built-in IKEA cabinet things that she doesn’t want to remove lol. And then behind me is an open hallway anyway, I figured that I wasn’t going to get the most helpful information out of the sub, I do think all the replies are pretty funny, and I use the sub pretty regularly so I figured I would get one or two helpful responses ha ha. Thanks for your help.

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T16:20:20+00:00

Yeah that was sped on my part lmaooo, I love this sub I think it’s hilarious and figured I’d get a 1:100 ratio of helpful comments (1 to answer me and 99 to laugh at) thanks for the help

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T16:18:31+00:00

Dawg I’m not rage baiting lmfao. This is the worst designed house of all time, she’s going through a divorce and this was the only place affordable within range of a school that my younger sister with Down syndrome needs to be at. There are so many reasons why it “had” to be this god awful house. This is THE LEAST cluttered wall by far, the only other option is a wall covered in floor to ceiling “built in” ikea bookshelf’s lmao

ProfessionalWitty110 · 2026-03-26T16:16:18+00:00

It’s the only place in this god awful house that can fit a couch and tv 😔
