When I came home from Florence, Italy, in June, for a solid week afterwards, I’d wake up in the middle of the night, eventually realize I was home and would feel incredibly sad that I was no longer in Florence — something I’d never experienced after my other trips. I’d eaten incredible food (perhaps the best soup and the best pizza I’ve ever had), met some very nice peeps (mostly Americans; as I don’t speak Italian, I didn’t meet many locals) and was just happy to soak in the culture once I got weary of visiting churches and museums. Above is a photo of one of my favourite spots, the gorgeous Boboli Gardens, and below, the Ponte Vecchio. Sigh…

“I’ve died and gone to cheese heaven!” I thought, standing in this room filled with shelves upon shelves of parmesan before me.

Introducing a new series of posts where I highlight a few of the places my travels take me. Instead of that gnome, it’s my nails popping up in all sorts of fun places 
Me and my nails (and some fancy schmancy Rimowa luggage I’m testing out) are off to Italy, wheeeee! Parma (for work) then Milan and Florence (let’s call that work-ish). Italy’s been on my must-see list, like, forevah — I’m already a bit anxious about never wanting to come back home…
So follow me on Twitter (just clicky-poo on through and hit follow, yo!) that way you can stay tuned on all the delicious things I’m eating, drinking, seeing and doing… (and, erm, you’re not…)
Ciao!
