Great write up on a city that people overlook…and shouldn’t!
Milan doesn’t usually feature too highly on people’s ‘must visit’ lists. It’s an okay city, a financial powerhouse, but let’s face it, it’s no Florence or Rome.

Hi, thanks for the repost, and great site, I look forward to reading more!!
Thanks! Enjoyed your blog as well–we’re looking to grow and let more people know about the wonders found in Northern Italy and would love to share any contributions you care to make. We’ll be in Venice next week taking film and photos for some more content and slide shows and such.
Cool, well if there’s anything in particular you want just let me know, I’d be happy to help. Otherwise, just feel free to repost anything you like… thanks!

I think you would need a slightly bigger van than we had… it was cramped with just two of us in there. Other than that, I reckon they would love it, it was such a great trip!
