Good thing is it’s a small island and people are very kind there and would let you charge for free at petrol stations, restaurants even when I was stranded in the rain and battery drained instantly I got to someone place they hosted me for 3 hours and had the best chat. I feel bad how restaurant owners refuse to use their socket yet you even offer to eat or buy something.

    Sorry to be a bit rude Louis but you are a bit of a prat. take everything or the scooter that you are not going to use courier it to your destination in Italy. Check your tyre pressures every day before you set off or you will have a burst tyre. Use Airbnb and charge overnight, check after 10 minutes that the batteries are actually charging. Do this and you might make it.
