Well, this is an update for 2 weeks’ worth since I missed last week! That first week, I spent most of it in Italy, specifically Verona + Venice. I was, however, under the weather so spent a fair bit of it resting. This week gone has been acclimating to jet lag and getting back into the routine as mentioned above. Some highlights:
- Discovering a mini Colosseum in Verona (Verona Arena)
- Realising that I like visiting the smaller, more local cities. Not the small towns/villages, but the less popular spots in a country.
- Having dinner at a local restaurant only to have the Italian waiter speak to me in fluent Bangla! Mind blown!
- Seeing what the fuss was about in Venice… and realising if you just take 1 or 2 streets off the main path, you basically avoid all the tourists
- Staying in London for 1 night in a hotel that included everything in the minibar!
- Coming back to the cats!
- Realising I’m getting too old for these frequent quick trips half way around the world
- Actually enjoying being back at work because its with friends I don’t see often outside of work
