Venezia, Va Bene!

Venice
We lost in soccer. That's that.

I went to Boboli Gardens in Florence with my Villa and the Garden class. That was thrilling.

Let's talk about Venice. I'm pretty sure this city is not part of the same planet that ive been living on for the past 21 years of my life. The "streets" and "alleys", strangely, might be the most beautiful part of this city.. Well that, the panoramic views, and the experience of traveling down the Grand Canal. I'm getting so excited even trying to put this into words that im not sure if im even forming sentences. The "taxi cabs" were all boats and yes, gondolas were everywhere. The city itself was one of the most confusing labyrinths i have ever experienced and luckily i was not alone. Dinner with Carlo, Stefano, and the group included endless bread, a diverse plate of italian meats, a main course of four cheese pasta, and of course an ice cold birra!

Now for the best part, the Venice Architecture Biennale. i would try to explain it but you should probably just take a quick look for yourself..

Yeah, that's what i said.

This is what i have been waiting for my entire time abroad, CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTURE. That's probably why i took approximately 460 pictures. One week until all hell breaks loose!
