Milan 7/8/14-8/8/14

MILAN. A very commercialized place (read: boring). Disappointing train station that looks sleezy and run-down, homeless people gallivanting didn't help. Had Turkish kebabs, Taiwanese bubble tea, and Indian Briyani; that's how interesting the place is. Then again, awesome gelato (5 scoops in total!) and risotto that's authentically Italian. Yea, Duomo was magnificent and shopping streets were aplenty. What amazed me most is their water "cooler" which I initially thought is some fountain feature that homeless people use to wash themselves but no, block the water flow and it becomes a water source and they were drinkable! So yay to quenching thirst in hot summer sun! (Drastic change from Zermatt where we chased the sun)

Oh hostel was on a sleezy street with another small manual lift but room was decent to our relieve!
