    A different view of Florence

    Italy

    There are [5] photos and [1] story about Italy

    Since i would rather walk then use public transport this overpass was my beginning and the end of the day in Florence for me. Although this is an overpass just like any other going over the train station, i found it very peaceful and calming. While some people might find this place scary, (if you find yourself with a stranger and nowhere to run feeling), i was happy every time i saw it and knew it's a beginning of an new and exciting experience. by: bogisp Views[127] I was one of the first in line to get into Florence Cathedral and as any tourist i was ready with my camera to take photos. Don't get me wrong, i was amazed by the sheer size and beauty of it, but the first thing i did was taking a photo of people that stopped enjoying what they were there for in the first place. Technology has come between us, we stopped having nice memories and started having lots of pictures. by: bogisp Views[107] A street artist had enough of it and decided to have some fun with a man that just got out of the shoe store. He was taking a break from shopping and she saw an opportunity to have some fun. They didn't speak the same language but laughter feels and means the same all around the world. by: bogisp Views[102] Silently asking for a little bit of help Poverty is everywhere, such is the case in Florence too. Logic implies, more people in big city higher the chance of geting any money for doing nothing. A poor man just asking to survive a rainy day while most of the people pass him by carelessly. by: bogisp Views[118] As a big fan of cycling i was happy to see people in Florence using bicycles as a primary method of transportation in already crowded city center. Aside the fact that bicycles are good for your health and environment as a sustainable way of transport, narrow streets of Florence are not going to make an easy day for you if you are driving a car. So, cycle away my friend! by: bogisp Views[95]
