First of all. Traveling is my best bae of all.
On a layover through somewhere I've been wanting to go for a long time... I was disappointed not to leave the airport. But you know how it is. Time and airports and waiting all fly hand in hand. So you do what you do. And maybe miss an opportunity through Russia. But, that just means I'll have to come back. So, be waiting Russia.
I get to see my friend of 3 years ago. I am reminded at the beauty of God's connecting hand. A person from a small town in Carolina. Meets a Romanian. In the jungles of Peru. And 3 years later goes to visit them at their house in Rome Italy.
Lidia is a woman of great example to me. She has been since the day I met her in the jungle. I admire her so much. I am always so humbled just being around her and seeing her daily life. She is such a servant to everyone around her. And enjoys it to no end. She makes anyone feel like a child being pampered by their favourite aunt. And gives you sweet pats on the head like a knowing wise woman.
Well. In case you didn't know it. I hope to continue learning and maybe one day can be a sweet kind lady with half as much wisdom :)
Italy. Oh Italy. It is filled with great walls of ruins and history and beauty. I love the visible history everywhere around you. Something that surprised me most was the amount of graffiti everywhere. I was surprised at such a historical city being overrun by graffiti... it ruins so many gorgeous buildings and places. But. The locals themselves told us that the majority of the Romans don't do much about it or mind it much. They've just accepted it everywhere.
Italian famo food. Let's say if I had to live off coffee and pizza from any one place. It would be here. I now have a higher respect for those tiny little tea cups of dark black coffee. It's guuuuuuudness is now forever sketched on my lil ole taste buds and I'll probably be craving it everyday of my life.
Rome.Florence.Milan.and Venice. All completely beautiful places. Rome I loved this history and beauty in its old Rome ruins. And one of my favourite persons in the world. Michaelangelo and his geniuses of art and sculpture. The Sistene? I was going to plan a way to hide there after closing and then sleep on the floor just looking at it all night. Then wake up to the amazement of it. My plan is still in process so maybe I'll give it a trial run next time I'm through.
Lemme know of you want in.
Florence again with Michaelangelos great work. And my favourite cathedral on the outside is here. Shes made of gorgeous white, green, and red marble EVERYTHINGEVERYWHERE.
I decided if Michaelangelo found a way to come forward in time to my day. Then I would ask him pretty please very nice and sweet if he would build me a house just like it. And I would raise millions of little orphans in at and they would all learn to make cookies and sell lemonade and he could be their favourite uncle.
So that's my plan for him if he gets here.
Florence is beautiful. Marble is beautiful and walking through towns with gelato stores everywhere is gud.
Milan. Friends from Argentina. I now wanna really learn Italian because listening to Italian families joke around the table and pretty stinking thankful I understand 70% of it thanks to Spanish. So hullo 3rd language please come teach me. Milan is full of fashion shoppers and pigeons in the plaza. Charlie and I had the honour of being covered with 20 birds all over just building nests in our hair. We are fine and the pigeons are finer.
Venice. I can't say anything now. Except please git a leg up and book yer ticket to Venice now. I'll be there with my gondola and wearing the striped shirt with the sun hat and a bow. I found my new calling in life. Gondalier. You know where to find me. Paddling all the baes around the rivers and also drinking Italian espressos.
So this is just a .6489294% of my thoughts on Italy. I have loads of it and it's large variety of goodness. Tune in next time to hear about the time my train car almost got disconnected and would go to the wrong country unbeknownst to myself. Thankfully a ticket master likes to offer beer and coffee to two girls looking for empty seats.
