Day 1 - Milan
18 april 2023, Italien ⋅ ⛅ 70 °F
Arrival day to Italy!! Arrived in Milan at 8 am and took a train and then a subway to our neighborhood that the Airbnb is in. We were able to drop our luggage while the cleaned it and we went out to explore the neighborhood!
We had amazing pizza and lemon soda and then went to a pharmacy for some essentials, dropped in a few stores, We had some pastries and cappachino.and went to a local park to take a nap til our Airbnb was ready. Such a beautiful day to lay in the grass and surrounded by locals doing their daily thing. Lots of groups of students traveling through, workers on benches taking their lunch break, ladies feeding the pigeons, lots of local flavor!
Checked into our cute Airbnb and took another nap with the windows open and the noises of the city. We have a fun hobbit door to enter the Arena 1 complex and then there is a beautiful courtyard. Such a great find considering the hotels were overpriced due to the big decor event going on this week.Läs mer

Day 1 - Milan evening
19 april 2023, Italien ⋅ ⛅ 59 °F
After our nap, we went out for dinner in a small alley near the park at a Tapas bar and had Aperol Spritzers, olives, beet salmon cakes, tempura prawns, and calamari sandwiches. Such a great experience with locals everywhere. Even dogs!

Stopped for gelato on the way back. Incredible. Had the chocolate and pistachio. Yum! Goal to have some every day! So good!!!

As we were almost bank to our lodging, we heard cheering from over a block away and decided to check it out. It was a sports bar and Milan’s soccer team was playing Nepali and the passion of the cheering was so heart warming. We stayed for a drink and really enjoyed the local football loyalty.

Incredible intro to Italy today!!!Läs mer

Pictures cannot do this justice. It is just a masterpiece. The marble with the pink in it, the gold Madonna up top, the sun calendar, the 52 pillars, Bartholomew skinned, the double organs, stained glass that was dark outside, … just so in awe of the grandeur. It was just jaw dropping.Läs mer

Aaaah. Felt like a little home today. Needed some mountain love. Too snowy for the hiking on the planned agenda but it was still gorgeous to see the Dolomites. They have famous via ferrata routes that would be so fun to do in the summer.Läs mer
