g o , g e n , g o: Siena, Italy →
gogengo: We got to visit Siena for a few hours on the way back to Rome from Florence. I wish we could’ve gotten more out of the visit though, since a huge chunk of the time was taken up with just walking to the city center. Siena is famous for the twice-yearly Palio di Siena, or horse race,…

g o , g e n , g o: Venezia, Italia, Part IV →
gogengo: The best mask shop in Venice (and one of my favourite shops in the world!) has got to be La Botega dei Mascareri. It’s a tiny little place, warm and tucked into the long line of numerous mask shops and souvenir shops that line the rialto bridge. I stumbled upon it pretty much by accident, or…

g o , g e n , g o: Venezia, Italia, Part III →
gogengo: More sights as we walk through the narrow, characteristic streets of Venice, Italy. It is just as colorful as I remember from all those years ago, and every narrow alley and zigzagging side street made me feel like I was on the set of some renaissance film. All I needed was a huge adorned…

g o , g e n , g o: Duomo, Milano, Italia →
gogengo: After freezing in Como, we made our way to Milan, one of the fashion capitals of the world. Big whoop. Milan was such a letdown. I had such high high hopes for this artistic city, being an artist myself, but the overall impression I had was that Milano was so bland, austere and…

g o , g e n , g o: Galleria, Milano, Italia →
gogengo: After the Gothic Duomo, another staple we visited in Milan was the famous Galleria, which is this domed/glass-ceiling covered shopping mecca, complete with period cafes and the expected souvenir stand in the corner. Gorgeous glass domed ceilings

g o , g e n , g o: Perche No! Gelato, Firenze,... →
gogengo: When we were in Florence, we tracked down this gelateria which my sister had researched online. Supposedly among the best in Italy! Just see the school kids barely able to contain themselves with excitement! The kids with their noses pressed hungrily against the glass (okay, not…

g o , g e n , g o: Santa Croce, Firenze, Italia →
gogengo: One of our stops in our tour of Florence was the Santa Croce, an imposing basilica that flanks the piazza of the same name. I vaguely remember seeing this basilica in my previous visit to Florence, but didn’t really have any solid memories of it. The sky was bright and vivid and made the…

g o , g e n , g o: Firenze di Notte, Italia →
gogengo: After a tiring day of touring, we rested for a bit then decided to go out to explore the city at night I love these Pinocchio things. I bought, from the entire trip to Italy, 2 sharpeners, 4 wooden puppets, 2 yo-yos, 1 magnet, and some paper with Pinocchio designs. All…

gogengo: Random shots through the streets of Florence~ Closeup of the creepy-cool statue I mentioned here. Me and my sister doing more shadow shots (which we’ve done quite a bit on this trip) A lovely cafe-lined square the square outside the Palazzo della Signora Below, can you spot the David replica?

g o , g e n , g o: Leather & David, Firenze,... →
gogengo: We started one of the mornings by visiting the leather and gold factory in the center of Florence. It was the typical (or at least from my memory of this) demonstration and sales talk, but mostly what I was really interested in was getting my hands on goldleaf, which I’d always wanted to use…
