😊✨ Bologna: A Day Trip Full of Surprises 🇮🇹☕🌸

I took a day trip from Mestre to Bologna by bus 🚌. I tried Itabus this time, but the ride was delayed by 2 hours ⏳… so here’s my honest tip: if you want to save time, go with FlixBus instead. It’s a little more expensive, but much more reliable — and you can even catch the last bus from Bologna back to Mestre to stretch your day.

Even without visiting museums, Bologna charmed me with its city vibe — endless galleries, red rooftops, and that unmistakable energy. I enjoyed a coffee break ☕ while watching locals stroll by, and of course, indulged in plenty of calories (because Bologna is food heaven 🍝🍷).

One of the sweetest moments was stumbling upon a beautiful flower shop Verde Oliva , run by a talented designer originally from Russia 🌸. A short conversation with her made the day extra special.

💡 Tip: Bologna is best enjoyed by slowing down, wandering under its historic arcades, and letting little surprises find you 💙.
