Milan, Italy
Milan was the very first city I ever set foot in Italy. That was back in 1998. Although many people who have toured this country have said that this city isn't pretty compared to other Italian cities, it was plenty pretty to me. I liked the architecture and everything seemed quite grand. I wouldn't mind going back.
Coming here was a nightmare. Marc drove and we got lost along Corso Buenos Aires. It turns out this was a main shopping street and it was super busy the afternoon we looked for our hotel in the area. How the Italians drove. Marc and both laugh at this experience now, but, we were scared out of our wits when it happened to us.
