Take a Walk Get Lost!

So far Ive been living in Milan for three weeks and I have been so amazed by all the inspiration this city has given me by just going out exploring the city and getting lost. I discovered that just walking around with a open mind and letting everything else go brings about a sense of peace especially looking at the Graffiti on the streets of Milan. The Graffiti is not only in Milan but Venice as well which was a surprise to me. I am getting very used to seeing the graffiti on the streets and have realized that is the Italians art form and is their freedom of speech because they do not have the freedom of speech here like we do in America. My girlfriends and I took a day trip to Venice and I stumbled onto this work of art. When I look at this particular wall graffiti I think about how crazy it must feel to only be able to have freedom of speech by painting random words and images onto a wall or building! Wow we are so lucky to have the freedoms we have in America!
