So, I'm hoping to take advantage of my December break from school, and save a few hundred dollars and not have to fight the mobs of people during the summer and go to Italy. I'm thinking of the one for spending new years Eve over there or going earlier in December. I am worried about exactly how much I'm going to actually enjoy the trip due to the weather. Has anyone ever gone to Italy during the winter, is it really that cold. does it rain a lot? Can you enjoy Venice? or does just being there make you forget about the weather? Or should i just wait for spring break again? i need some useful advice. anything will help. thanks.
