 | hi all :) i just came back from 2 weeks italy and it rocked! rome was
 sooo cool, there's too much to see there, venice and
 florence rocked too (as did the tower in pisa :D ).
 i kinda have bad memories about milano (sorry Woofer ;) )
 since i got stuck by accident in that city, i took the wrong
 turn on the highway and all of a sudden i was in the centre,
 took us about and hour to get back on the track :\
 
 only thing that drove me nuts were the crazy fuckers in the
 traffic! christ! they drive like complete fools over there,
 still i'd recommend italy to everyone, shame i didn't have
 more time to spend there :(
 of course it's good to be back home too :)
 
 so what's going on here lately?
 did i miss anything?

 graffiti can one city have?!?

 | i'm happy you liked italy. well, in milan we really drive like mads, and it's not easy to find the right way if you
 lose the right track. too much traffic here, fortunately i
 live in a little country near to Milan (about 12km) and here
 i live better. anyway all weekend nights i'll go in the
 centre of milan for discopub, club, disco, shops, etc...
 
 the life run quickly in milan, so we're used to drive fast,
 and i had problems in Ibiza, 'cos i thought they were too
 much slow especially during the rounds.
 
 too much stress here in milan, my friends...

 | can't remember seeing those, i was only focussing on the traffic (read: nutscases on scooters).. but isn't there a
 duomo in florence too? i'm confused.. :\
 i went on that thing with those fucking stairs, i thought
 the trip up never ended
 the view at the top was rewarding though :)

 | what you have to understand, is that thats just how italians are.
 
 they dont have lines, they dont follow traffic rules etc...
 
 but if you actually talk to them and be nice, or if they are
 your friends, they are the nicest people
 
 seriously.
 
 its just how they are. I personally love italians.

 | Yes, i know you are by just being here on this board =) 
 But its just me, being sour over italy. It was the first
 place where someone tried to steal my wallet, and people
 were generally really unpleasant. I might just been really
 unlucky, so....
 
 And also, berlusconi annoys me, yet, he's one of the funnier
 politicians!!
 So basically, i had some bad experiences, but dont take it
 personally! =) Peace.

 | Welcome back, Mor :) 
 I enjoyed my stay in Italy as well, but I have to agree with
 you: Italians are insane when it comes to driving. We
 witnessed a car accident there. Van driving backwards with
 50 km/h or so ran over a cyclist. Not the prettiest sight
 :\
 
 Italian women however, are very sightly! I am jealous of
 you, Woofer :(

 | My recent trip to Sicily confirms they are the bottom of a very dirty barrel when it comes to bad driving.

 | Went to Rome. I suppose the tourist place nr 1in Italy does not give a
 realistic image of Italy. I can only imagine how someone
 would view Denmark, had they only seen Copenhagen. The real
 gold is always out in the country.
 
 One cool as fuck incident in Italy, was this. I was riding
 in a bus, that couldnt make a turn because of a car that was
 parked wery bad. We sit and wait for about 10 minutes or
 something, untill this like exact copy of Hulk hogan, in a
 suit comes along and lifts the car away! it was a small car
 yes, but i couldnt stop laughing. Then everybody in the bus
 cheered at him.... Wery cool guy i must say.
