This is why I get too shy to ever write anything here!

Tell me why 🤣

Architecture in Rome is completely different from that of Venice. Rome is more influenced by authentic Roman architecture and ruins. I personally fell in love with the sculptures and fountains and their background stories. Learning how Roman mythology influenced the arts was fascinating. For example, when I saw the Pantheon Temple, the exquisite part was that huge circle/ hole on the dome in the middle of the temple. I mostly followed the architectural detailed part following the mythology and purposes of the temples.

Venice is actually beautiful and I guess I haven't written a full post on Venice yet. Venice can be a romantic place too, with gondola rides. I remember the movie called The Tourist (Angelina Jollie and Jhonny Depp). To me, Venice is like a Hollywood movie, with history with a glam look, and a very well-preserved city... My Venice tour was interesting, the people from our group were fighting with each other. So, we wasted a lot of time...

Can't stop laughing 🤣

I find that Italy's tourist haunts in general a bit scammy and underhand with dual menus and pricing which annoys the hell out of me.

Absolutely, beautiful women are thieves, so never trust beautiful women 🤣
