Verona

February 27, 2010

In Verona I was back again in the popular Italian-touristic-traps-circuit. Verona is known as the city of love because in this city where setting of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Julieta is. The city was full of tourists taking pictures everywhere, specially on Julietta’s balcony. The city was really crawled because an international marathon was held during the weekend I was in the city.

What I most like about the city was Julietta’s house where people use chewing gum to stick love notes on a wall. I found this absolutely fascinating because the people write very profound feelings they are normally not able to express publicly. Most of them are simple, but there are amazing notes like a guy that use the note to break up with his girlfriend because he has discover his true love living with another guy, the man of his dreams. My favorite love note is this note dedicated to Bruce Willis.

In Verona I met some people in the hostel I will never forget, for example the scary Moldavian guy that was unable to speak anything but Moldavian. I don’t understand how can somebody like him reach Verona traveling alone!
