We spent slightly less than a week in Mestre and Marghera, but I can imagine we’d spend here a month or two. It’s a very quiet place, but if you jump on a train, you’re on the isles in 10 minutes, it’s so easy to commute back and forth. Claudia is an excellent host. If I’d have to pick one word that would express our experience, I’d choose “hospitality,” if I’d have two, I would add “responsibility.”
