  • Far too sweet for me, and I have a sweet tooth. Was before I was diabetic too. Tho vino santo was amazing.

    @withered_preacher I was there for two academic years, doubt I will ever go back for more than a day.

  • Familiarity/contempt.
    Lucky for me I haven’t hit that wall (I’ve only been to Italy a couple of times unless you count Ticino).

  • Maybe. Or maybe I made such great memories that old me could never do that anymore.
    There are so many other places I haven't been and I would like to go. Also lazy, go 'home' to the family...you don't know the nagging/bad mouthing you get if you don't visit the family in age (hierarchy) order. When I was younger the family would go to Italy in secret as there wasn't enough time to go see everyone. While I didn't give a fying fuck and spent time with the family I loved. Even stayed in cheap hotels nearby and that can upset the family too.

    I miss wandering home late, dropping by the bakeries and buying fresh out of the oven cornetti and having a milky coffee or chocolate before bed. Then up four hours later for work or study.
