From the Roman Forum to the watery canals of Venice, Italy is one of the most iconic places for travelers to visit. Lovers throw coins into the Trevi fountain and backpackers hike Cinque Terra. Boasting Etruscan antiquities, Renaissance architecture, great techno clubs, a vibrant graffiti scene and some of the best wines in the world, the country truly offers something for every traveler.
And yet Italy is viewed as an expensive country for many Americans, a bucket-list destination that is seemingly out of reach. But it doesn't have to be. I lived there for a year when I was 18, spending my weekends exploring the country on a shoestring with fellow college students. Thanks to an extensive public transportation system that puts the United States to shame, a plethora of inexpensive cultural activities and an unabashed admiration for food, Italy is in fact a great budget destination if you know where to go and how to get around.
