I love how I can walk from one end of Florence to another without having to drive or take public transportation. I love the antiquated, yellow, orange, and pink, picturesque buildings. I love the colorful window shutters {that I took too many pictures of!} and the well-groomed trees. I love the curving, narrow, and charming streets that you could get lost in. I love relaxing with a glass {or bottle} of wine by the Arno Rover and people watching. I love the locals who are proud of their growing town. I love Florence because it's everything you envision an Italian village being, with its piazzas {squares}, lined with cafes + music + people + lively energy. I love listening to the mesmerizing, beautiful, Italian language that exudes so much emotion. I love the history that is present in each street and the rich art + architecture. Most of all, I love it because part of me just feels home and at ease there, something I have yet to find in England.
And even these pictures truly don't do this village justice, but it's certainly a peek into understanding my passion for Florence.
