From Barcelona, Spain, and traveling with a dog, what types of transportation modes are available, and would anyone kindly recommend one mode over the over, and explain why.
I love taking trains, but if a local European thinks its wiser to travel with the dog by plane or boat or bus, this is the issue.
I’ve had to go through all kinds of hoops to get the dog ready for Spain, which is why I may not have time to change plans and make a direct flight to Italy. Traveling will be tough for me especially with the dog. So I really could use some opinions. Is there a boat direct to Sicily is where I need to end the journey. I imagine I’d need a health certificate in Italian if I flew in, but is one needed if I take a boat … if there is a boat …or the train? Bus, etc. Thanks so much if you can help .

Hey everyone, I am going to backpack in italy for one month. I am 20 and will be traveling alone, staying in hostels.
I will travel by train, north to south. Flying in the north (milan or venice) and leaving from Rome.
Main goals are photography, culture/language, meeting people and cuisine.
My main destinations are Venice, Florence and Rome.
I don’t want to be a “see it all tourist”, but I definitely want to stop in a few places in between.
Where should I go? What is worth the travel time and money?
How easy is it to get down south and what should I see?
Is it realistic to make it to Sicily at all?
Thank you!
