Here is another dedicated post, but this one is not to a particular city, but to beautiful Italy,
and to the ever perfect Verona, Milano, Venetia, Firenze and Rome.
And also, its for those moments where you find yourself confused and lost and suddenly "BAM" a place can surprise you in the perfect way, you suddenly feel a indescribable happiness and you feel so full and complete.
I also have to say that you have to learn to look beyond whats in front of you, don't just take what you are supposed to be seeing or learning, there is always something better but you have to look to find this, and smile :)
I feel obligated to mention that Italy is place full of incredible art, history, food and talent, and now that I mention it, I have found a new love and respect to the wonderful "Michelangelo". Believe me this genius made perfection of so many places and things.
And Im not only saying this because he is famous (Like the other famous master Leonardo Da Vinci)
even if he wasn't as famous as he is, he will still stand up to the people that really see beauty even if its hidden.
Now enough of this weird speech I am giving you, I present you some pictures I
took while traveling in Italy and some quotes of the
amazing, awe-inspiring, awesome,arresting, sensational, stunning, astonishing, astounding, staggering, stupefying imposing, noble, dazzling, eye-popping, fulgurant, fulgurous, dramatic, spectacular, striking, expansive, grand, heroic, formidable, gallant, lofty, majestic, proud, brilliant, glorious, magnificent, splendid, grandiose, mind-boggling, palatial, thundering ITALY!
