    Milano

    August 24, 2023 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 32 °C

    The gals are back together!!!! This time taking on Italy 😎 early start to our first trains to Gatwick, a v easy flight and we landed in Milano. Sooooooo hot it’s insane - like 35 degrees at 10pm we are 2 sweat balls. Had a walk around the city but a nap was needed v quick with the heat and me being me. We were both very impressed w it though it’s prettier than I thought it would be! Went to a hostel bar and ended up standing outside the Duomo for a couple of hours feeling like 14 yr olds drinking in the park - but with a better view. Met some nice people and celebrated a 21st but felt v hungover the next day heading to Lake Como! Was a very intense experience trying to get on the bus to Bellagio (didn’t make it and got elbowed in the head a lot) and realised that Como is only designed for people who can pay for a water plane as transport ie not us - surprising I know but don’t worry we’ll be back when we’re rich!! Aimee got her swim (don’t know what would have happened if we didn’t) and it was very pretty. Another nap and more pasta pesto ofc then went to the hostel bar again! Hadn’t even poured our wine before we got bombarded by man after man coming over :// Some were nice but it was very overwhelming and I would happily not talk to another man for the rest of the trip. Didn’t pay for a single drink but tbh I’d have rather been able to speak more than 2 words to Aimee without being interrupted ://// finally met some lovely girls who tried to save us (thanks queens), went to another bar and both ended up crying in the street over how annoying men are - ofc one stopped stared and asked for a kiss as we were doing this 🙃🥰😘 thought Aimee was gonna deck him but made it home safe and now on the train to Cinque Terre!! Onto the next place where we plan to have 0 drinksRead more
