Before my train to Nice, the morning and the afternoon day three were very productive. I found another favourite place in Milan: 'The Hipster Area' with vintage shops, organic cafees, nice atmosphere and fancy people. Shame, we didn't have enough time to stop and enter. My friend (yes, you, pretty little liar) promised me we would be back, but since we were speed touring, there was no time for come backs. Use it or loose it, as one of my professors says. I feel I've kind of lost this one. Visiting places like that makes me regret I don't have real house, so I can't buy any object potentialy problematic in terms of transportation. Hard to guess I'm a huge fan of Audrey.
After running through The Hipster Area, we rushed towards The Skyscrapers Area- Unicredit Tower, Palazzo Lombardia and Gae Aulenti. This is completely different part of the city, different in terms of architecture and climate of Piazza Duomo and Central Station, which are just on the palm of a hand. I really like the idea of colorfull sculptures which make the cold and moder skyscrapers appear more human and lively. If only not the fog, we could probably have enjoy the panorama of the city.
Confetti here, confetti there, confetti everywhere. Confetti even in The Skyscraper Area. Inevitable sign of the carnival.
I finished my more-than-72-hours in Milan at the Central Station, which itself is a monument. Despite everything I really enjoyed Milan. It is a city full of contrasts. Everything you want, will be there. And I will be back. I just wish they didn't speak Italian. Ha. Ha. Ha.
