I've been talking a LOT about food the last few weeks.  What can I say - Florence has a lot of great food to talk about.  Unfortunately, all of that pasta can add up around your waistline, even with all of the walking that you'll do.  The last thing I ever want to do on vacation is think about working out, especially in a gym.  I'd rather spend that time enjoying my vacation...or eating gelato.  However, I've come across a great workout routine that you can do anywhere.

You know what?  I was hooked! 

Read on for five reasons why I think you should consider traveling with a group too.

The Traveling Gourmand…sounds fancy but when you break it down, it’s not and I’m not.  The image below should clearly prove that, along with why I'm not starting a fashion blog.
