Things to do.
Cinque Terre - a coastal town in Liguria, the region that borders Tuscany to the northwest. It's got beautiful beaches and maybe beautiful people I don't know.
Bologna - a city so hardcore I must go three times. I went spring break to see Tuneyards, I'll be going tomorrow on a field trip to study influential female women in the arts. I'd like to go back one more time to see the Giorgio Morandi musuem. I'm a fan of him. Plus there's Bolognese sauce, which must be best in Bologna no?
The hills of Florence - I was unaware before coming here, but Florence has hills, or mountains, I'm not sure how people call them. So I'll take a bus out to the end of the line somewhere, and see what there is. From other people's photos it's well worth it.
Montespertoli - this might be trickier. There aren't trains that go here. My favorite wine thus far, Chianti Montespertoli, is from this comune. I'm not really sure what's there, but it's another excuse to go somewhere. I'll see how this one pans out...
I also finished some art. I posted this last time, but here's the completed version. This is an illustration of a chapter from Invisible Cities. This is the city of Zemrude. It is the mood of the beholder which gives the city of Zemrude its form. If you go by whistling, your nose a-tilt behind the whistle, you will know it from below: window sills, flapping curtains, fountains. If you walk along hanging your head, your nails dug into the palms of your hands, your gaze will be held on the ground, in the gutters the manhole covers, the fish scales, wastepaper...
