lost and found in Italy

My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

ITALY | Friday, 7 December 2012 | Views [147] | View Larger Image

On our way to find some food after a wine tasting in Chianti we came across a piazza full of amazing Italian cars. We decided this would be a fun place to eat and gawked as the owners sat in the cars for about an hour before all taking off in a parade out of the piazza. We loved just watching the Italians interact with one another. They enjoy showing off what they have....as well as drinking, eating, and kissing.

When I arrived back in the States everyone asked what my favorite place in Italy was. I always answered all of them, of course, but I do think Capri took my heart. The landscape itself is incredible and their is too much color to not be in a terrific mood! I will definitely make my way back to Capri someday and next time I will be in one of these boats making my way around the island. I found my sense of adventure here.

I think I bought a piece of artwork from a street artist in every city I visited but it was this man in Florence who caught my eye and ear. I sat and listened to his stories of travel for only a short thirty minutes, but five watercolors later, that I then bought, I left him with an urge to see more of this world. I left the states feeling a little lost with who I was and where I wanted to go in life. When I returned I realized I wasn't lost I just have a need to see more. A need to travel and learn from others. And of course photograph everything I see so that the stories can be better understood when I tell them.
