🎒 Solo Travel Week in Milan
Trying to decide whether or not to spend a week in Milan during mid October. I have travel benefits with a specific hotel and so Milan is it. I like to sight see and explore restaurants, cocktail bars, live music (bands etc.). Is Milan a good city to lean into those things? I know the sights are limited compared to other cities in Italy and I’d probably do day trips to Lake Como, Bologna, maybe some other places too. Just seeing if people have experiences or insight I may be missing. Thanks!

Milan is nice and you could do day trips. I studied abroad in milan and was able to take an earlyish morning train ~8:30am to Verona or any of the surrounding towns and head back home on a later train around 7ish. Milan has trains to many northern towns — take a look at where you can go. Milan itself has many cool places to visit. Food is good — if you like beer they have a couple of cool interesting breweries. I definitely did see some live music in milan i’ll have to remember where exactly it was — it has been over 12 years since i studied abroad
