i was there for a week about 10 years ago; i could never orient myself around that city… maddening at the time, but almost enchanting in retrospect. in fact, it’s one of the first thing i tell people who are about to visit… embrace the spontaneity that comes with losing your way in venice
I used to live in Venice during my studies. As a tourist, it’s chaotic and crowded; as a resident, it’s always empty, silent, and—though decadent—incredibly beautiful. I can’t explain this phenomenon, but ask anyone who lived there and they’ll confirm my version.

I couldn't agree more! You never know where you'll end up in Venice, and that's a good thing
I went to Venice a few years ago, and saw none of what you suggest. Time to go back. 👍🏽
It's always time to go back to Venice 😎
I actually booked a trip to Venice last week so this is impeccable timing 😅🫶🏻
How do the old buildings survive having their foundation in the water?
That's a really good question.

Wow, I would so love to see Venice one day. Thanks for sharing!
Isola di San Michele looks like a spinach brownie, but the kind of spinach brownie I would take a bite out of, which is rare.
I must put Venice on my European itinerary. Thank you for the lovely article, sir.
Venice, a serenely flee,
Dawn a canal so supreme,
It would bemean as in upgrade me,
A welcomed serenely flee,
Because to me the visit be,
Without recourse or remorse,
Just vehemently serene for me!
