Pienoinen lomani vetää loppujaan, Suomeen saavuin takaisin perjantaina, valitettavasti mieleni taisi jäädä vielä lomailemaan Milanoon, sillä millään en tahdo ottaa "arjen" rutiineista vielä kiinni.
Rakas Italia on jäänyt taakse, toivottavasti vain vähäksi aikaa, sillä maa on ehdottomasti suosikkini kulttuureineen, ihmisineen ja paikkoineen. Italian on ihanan inspiroiva ja makuelämyksiä täynnä.
My little vacation is nearly finished. I arrived back to Finland at Friday, unfortunately my mind is still in Milan, it's hard to get back to normal activities and leave my loved Italy behind. Hopefully only a little while, because that country is my favorite with it culture, people and places. It is so inspiring and full of taste experiences.
Tämä matka oli ensimmäinen kerta Pohjois-Italiaan, etelässä olenkin käynyt jo Roomassa ja voin jo hyvin sanoa että paikallisessa toiminnassa on jonkinlaisia eroja. Esimerkiksi tavallista ruokakauppaa on mahdotonta löytää Milanon keskustasta, ravintoloiden henkilökuntakaan ei tiedä missä niitä sijaitsee, viimeisenä päivänä vahingossa löysimme ruokakaupan, mutta vain pienen sellaisen. Liha ja hedelmäkauppoja taas löytyy monelta eri kadulta ja hieman siwan kaltaisia kauppoja, mistä tosin et saa muuta, kuin kuivamuonaa. Isompia ruokakauppoja löytyy taas helpommin Rooman keskustasta. Auto liikenne ei ole läheskään niin hurjaa kuin Roomassa, mutta silti en uskaltaisi Italiassa ollenkaan hypätä ratin taakse. Liikenne merkit ovat enemmän suosituksia Italialaisille, kuin rajoituksia.
This trip has been my first in north - Italy, I have already visited in south in Rome and I can say that there are little differences between local activities. Example in Milan it's so hard to find a grocery store, even the restaurant staff didn't knew where those places. At last day in Milan we found one, but only a tiny one, it's easy to find a fruit and vegetable store or meat store, but if you want anything else it is almost impossible to find. It is so much easier to find a normal grocery store in Rome.
The car traffic is not as nearly scary and wild in Milan than it is in Rome, but I still couldn't go behind the wheels... The traffic sing are more recommendation for Italians than a restrictions.
Milanolaiset tunnistaa helposti, varsinkin miehet oli sitten +15 tai +30 lämpöä miehillä on aina suorat housut ja kauluspaita, oli sitten mies 20 tai 50. Voi kun suomalaisetkin miehet pukeutuisivat näin. Myös monilla naisilla näkyi housupuvut ja korot. On hauskaa aina kuljeskella kaduilla ja katsella ihmisten pukeutumista ja arjen menoa, kahviloissa varsinkin moni hoiti työasioitaan samalla tai sitten nähtiin ystäviä pikaisesti ruokatauolla.
It is very simple to recognize male Milanese, it didn't mind if weather is +15 or +30 degrees, males always wear trousers and a dress shirt, and it didn't matter which age you were the men are so polished in there. I wish men would be as sharp in here too.
I always like watching what people are wearing and what are their routines, in cafeterias you can spot lot of Milanese; at lunch they are meeting their friends or having a working lunch with their Blackberries.
