After a business trip in Como, I stayed a few days to look around in Italy. My friend, a Alfa Romeo fan from his first hours wanted to visit the Factory-Museum, and I volunteered to go with him. We took a taxi (Decadence!!! I would go hiking or take a bus) to the museum. It is located behind the …

Our last day in Italy. We more or less had seen the whole of Milan and were wondering what to do. Milan has a big football stadium (Stadio San Siro) which we hadn't seen yet, so undertook an epic journey to reach that stadium.What we did not know, was that the 2 large clubs of Milan, AC Milan and I…

  3 years of thinking; should I go or not? What do I have to do alone? Isn’t it scary? Where do I have to stay? All these questions were in my head. It has been a dream of me to go to the capital of Mode. To visit the nice buildings and much more.   Finally I made a decision and I j…

Our flight to Milan from Amsterdam was short as opposed to cross-Atlantic travel from Minneapolis. It was just over two hours. Soon after we landed at Milan's Malpensa Airport - which would be our base to our succeding country hopping, my wife's friends (Manila and Marianne) were the…

We awoke fairly early to begin packing and were checked out of the Hotel Arno by 11am. Not before some good banter with the maid and owner regarding the large Jenna Jameson poster we opted to display in our room! Glad they saw the funny side and would recommend the Hotel Arno to everyone, very clea…

It has been our first time to North America. We chose Canada beacuse it attracted us for its wild nature and landscapes, and for the historical sites and traditions of Québec.

TravBuddy member Mandy, (Perfectii0n) was in Milan, Italy back in January and enjoying the city she loves.  One of the pictures she took was of a monument with the Sforzesco castle entrance just off to one side.  I thought “What a great shot, the way she put both things in a nice clear …

It's the biggest of the italian metros at all, and it grows so there is no way that other cities in Italy could get larger system. But... it's very black metro, not even 'dark' but 'black'. It's because the pavement is made of something black. Besides it seems to be full of every kind of garbage on…

The next morning we checked out of our hotel and walked to the train station to get tickets for that night. Then we took a train to the Duomo where some guys tried to scam us by putting corn in our hands and getting the pigeons to come out of our hands, then asking for euros. I realized they sp…

Day 4 started off with a train trip. We grabbed a train from Florence to Milan. We took the wrong train. Oh it got us there but it was a higher class train and we had to pay more and we were separated because they had reserved seats. This girl who sat across from me on the train was absolutely…

This weekend I ventured off to Milan to visit two classmates from Michigan that are currently studying abroad at Bocconi in Milan.  It was a good weekend, but one without much sleep.  I had a 8:30 am flight on Friday and after hanging out on Thursday evening, I was only able to sleep for …
