as much as i agree with most, the scenery is untrue - it takes 30 mins to get to places like lecco or como which are gorgeous and outside the old town you have beautiful vistas onto the alps, The coast is also quite near, takes 1,5 hrs to go to genoa where i often go on weekend trips, also as an architect i must say that it is untrue, milan was the heart of the developments in architecture since 1800s till 1950s and the edifices are less touristy than idk vatican which is kinda a basic bitch place and this is a city of da vinci. Apart from all the others i agree, really great place for short vacations or great for living if you are rich but otherwise kinda a lot to stomach.
is this what america does to a person
