Isn't Rome so beautiful? 😍😍... it's such a dense city. It feels as though every square inch possesses some captivating art or architecture!! I loved it sooo much!! 😁❤
I really feel for you with your chronic illness - I suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms myself and as a result I have not travelled properly for quite a few years even though I used to love it. The travelling itself and the busy schedule really takes it out of me, even the thought of it makes me very stressed, so for you to have done 2 trips back to back is really amazing but obviously also taking a toll on you. I know how frustrating it is when your mind and body are not in sync - Rest up now and take it easy, nothing like your own home when you feel under par. I really look forward to seeing your Thailand trip that will going to be wonderful
This trip looked amazing. As someone who struggles with lupus, I can’t imagine doing two trips so close together, you are a champion! Rest up 🇮🇹
🇮🇹 😃.... It was so cool seeing the footage in Rome and recognizing those images from when I was there years ago. Such a beautiful city. I love that you went to Florence as well, because I had intended to include it but got so taken with Rome I decided to just stay there the week. I really liked how you just gave a visual sweep of all Italy had to offer our eyes. Thanks so much for sharing this great adventure you had. I very much appreciated the thoughts and personal experiences you shared as well. I look forward to your many future adventures and vlogs!! Thanks Ashleigh, take care!! ❤
so appreciate your candor about the chronic illness life!
I know what you mean by being overwhelmed by people. I visited Ephesus in Turkey last week, and it was so busy that I couldn't move. Plus, the sun was hitting 30 degrees.
My last travel was to Iceland in July, I had always wanted to go and I am so glad that I did!!! 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
The last place I visited I arrived back from yesterday and that was SE Victoria here in Australia 😊🇮🇹
The last place I visited was Disneyland Paris YEARS ago. I don’t have chronic fatigue but I have cerebral palsy, which affects my legs so I’m in wheelchair, which makes it hard for me to do things.
Looks like a great trip!
watching the vlog a bit late (cause i was on holidays myself haha) but i loooove the whole aesthetic of Italy, both Rome and Florence look very dark academia, absolutely gorgeous 🥺❤🤍💚 i'm so sorry to hear you've had a tougher time on this trip, i hope you managed to enjoy everything you got to see despite that, and also the nerdy/bookish company 🖤
I hope your own travels were as good as ours before! 🤎
What a beautiful documentation of your trip 😍 I lived in Italy for 4 years, just got back to the States last year. Cool to see how much you saw on your trip ... we did not get to do much traveling while there because of the lockdowns.
I have been living with a cervical herniated disc for like 7 years now ... and now, it is just unbearable! I can ONLY imagine the pain you and everyone else in the comments are going through. Just keep swimming is all I say. 🤗✨️🖤
Italy is beautiful!! So many stunning and different places. Glad you had fun! 🇮🇹
Love your cardie!
It was so lovely to experience your trip through your vlog. Thank you for sharing that experience 🇮🇹
🇮🇹The last trip I did was a cruise which included Florence. It really is a beautiful place and I loved seeing some of the places I visited on your vlog. Thank you.
I love Italy, haven't been anywhere for a very long time due to chronic illness so I feel your pain! Great vlog as always.
🇮🇹 The last place I visited was Barcelona in September, my daughter and I started doing a girls city break last year when we went to Rome which we absolutely loved! So this years trip was Barcelona and next year we are planning on visiting Florence. We also have Athens on our to do list as well as Copenhagen. Fancying Chang Mai in Thailand at some point too for week maybe 😊
Thoroughly enjoyed your vlog as well as your normal booktube videos, so glad I found you.
I got a bit teary eyed when you were crashing. I could feel it in my bones 😂🥲 Im so sorry it got that bad 💜
🇮🇹🍝🍕Awesome thumbnail!! I went to Venice Rome Florence Tuscany in 2014 and loved every minute. Tried to see and photograph as many fountains in Rome as I could ⛲️⛲️⛲️ It was a personal mission 😂 Loved seeing your video bringing those places back to life ❤ You needed rest for sure. Travel can wear you down. Pacing yourself is the key ❤
All I can say is that I am really jealous of you as I would love to go to Italy 🇮🇹 as it’s on my bucket list so you have crossed it off for me thanks 🙏 love this video and your amazing channel prayers and blessings for you and your family love your Aussie family friend John ❤❤❤
🇮🇹 The last trip I took was a. cruise to both the British & U.S. Virgin Islands. It's finally autumnal here too and my heart is at home 🥰
Ooooh I’ve never done a cruise!
So happy you visited my home city!
🖤
I love all the B roll! Italy looks like such a beautiful place to visit
It really is!
🇮🇹 The last place I visited was Scotland and England! Lol I fell in love with Edinburgh and wanted to move there so bad (back in 2013). I wish I would have but it's a bit harder moving across the pond. I love your travel vlogs. Filled out the survey. Looking forward to your next adventure. ❤ PS - about to read Slewfoot along with my witchy friends based on your rec. So excited!
Understandable! Where is it you’d be moving from? And thank you for your interest 🥹🫶🏻 I really hope you adore slewfoot, I’ve not stopped thinking about it since reading
@@AFrolicThroughFiction I'd be moving from Indiana (not too far from Chicago). We're excited about Slewfoot. Hoping to have it finished before Samhain. 🎃🧹🌙🦇🕷️🕸️
Awesome vlog! Sucks you felt bad at the end. Hope you feel better now. Ciao. 🇮🇹
Thank you 🤎
🇮🇹🍕🍝 Very relaxing video!
Italy looks so beautiful! 🇮🇹
It really is 😍
I went to Rome/Florence/Venice on my honeymoon and had the grandest time!
Fantastic vlog!! I had an amazing time in Italy and getting to know you in person! :)
It was so lovely to meet you in person after so long 🥹🫶🏻
🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹
I was in Rome a few weeks ago so it's nice to reminisce. The Vatican museums were so beautiful but soooo busy! The sixtine chapel was insane. They sell way too many tickets imo.
Yeah for sure! It would be a much better experience if you could wander through and really look at the art
🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
I picked up “Slewfoot” per your recommendation. Thanks for all the spooky recommendations.
Ooooh I hope you love it!
🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

I absolutely loved Florence and Rome, Florence has been my only solo trip outside the UK and I followed Dan Brown's book Inferno around the city 😂 Last place I visited was Heraklion in Crete which was amazing! I can't find an Italian flag😅so have a pride flag 🏳🌈
🇮🇹 💚 🤍 ❤️ 🇮🇹
Can't believe how early I am. Love your videos so much! Can I ask a random question? I know you're from England now live in Scotland. As an English citizen, did you need a visa to move to Scotland? Or was it pretty easy? Scotland is my dream country and your videos are seriously amazing.
Thank you! No Visa is needed to move between England and Scotland currently, they both come under British citizenship so it was just a case of literal moving ☺️
Such beautiful places you visited. I do hope you're body is feeling better. I also have a chronic illness. It's not any fun. I suffer from POTS. If you don't mind me asking what do you battle?
ME/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for me!
@AFrolicThroughFiction sending you love and light ♥️
Definitely wouldn't wish chronic illness on anyone. It really does change your outlook on life. Enjoy the good days/moments even more I think.

I’ve always eaten like an American. The amount of people that have given me shit for using my knife and fork to cut the food and then just use my fork in my right hand to eat 😅 I don’t feel bad about it now. My left hand is extremely weak so I just find it much easier to eat like this.
