The Day Uncle Franko Showed Us How Italians Live

Some of the best moments on a trip to somewhere new are the unexpected adventures and experiences that you come across. Those are the moments where when it’s happening, I feel like I am dreaming. This stuff doesn’t happen in real life does it? With an instrumental version of “Wake Me Up” By Avicci playing over the airplanes speakers as we landed in Milan, I knew we were in for an amazing time. It was 7:30am and we had been traveling for almost 24 hours (long layover in New York = cheapest flight!). We were exhausted but beyond excited to experience the Italian lifestyle that we were sure to find.
