Italy

I couldn't visit Italy without going to Rome, Milan, Venice and Florence.



Olive oil, pasta, mafia, roman ruins and renaissance palaces. Roman Catholic roots, beautiful scenic landscapes. Everything Italian! Contemporary Italian artists, writers, filmmakers, architects, composers, and designers contribute significantly to Western culture. Famous names of rulers, legends and Gods of the Roman Empire, such as Napoleon, Mussolini, Romulus and Remus. I enjoy art history and Italy happens to have some of the most influential artists from the many civilizations that have inhabited it. Michelangelo, Lorenzo di Pietro, Pietro Bernini, Giovanni, and Cristoforo Solari are a few of the talented artists that the world has seen.
