My Milan escape in pictures!

A couple of weeks ago I took a short trip to Milan! My need to escape from my reality in Greece and just travel somewhere was so big that the moment I saw those fifty euro flights to Milan I booked them even though I wasn't sure I would actually make the trip!( The truth is that I also wanted just for once to actually book one of those super cheap flight that always heard about but never saw!)

Unfortunately both boyfriend and friends were busy at the time so I went there alone and I did not regret it at all. Being a very shy person it has always been intimidating to do things alone but travelling on your own is actually very empowering and to me very fulfilling!

So since I do plan to visit Milan again with company I skipped sightseeing and focused on 6 things!

1. Go shopping/ window shopping  2. Visit Ostello Bello  3.Eat gelato (ice-cream)    4. Eat Italian pizza   5. Eat lasagna   6. Drink cappuccino

I took my pace and enjoyed just those 6 things without rushing to see everything and I can definitely say I came back a new person! 

I spent all three days at the shops, did a little bit of shopping and watched all the stylish people around me! I have to say the most trendy and in-style people were to my surprise asian!

I stayed at  Ostello Bello on of the best hostels in Europe which was one of the reasons I wanted to go to Milan! Perfect atmosphere, very friendly staff, warm common areas, great music and Italian cuisine!

I also had my lasagna there so what more could I ask!

My gelato was supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!! 

Chocolate cone, with chocolate inside the cone filled from chocolate running faucets, nocciola, nutella and biscotto flavoured ice cream and a topping of merenda. Where's my insulin?

Unfortunately my pizza was not as good.Apparently it is only in Rome where pizza is served in every single corner.I had some pizza during my Aperitif but it was nothing like the thin crispy crust pizza I had longed for!

The first time I ever tried coffee was in Rome, so three years later back in Italy, an avid coffee drinker now I had to try my cappuccinos. The view of Duomo was majestic! 

I also had a quick one at the airport!

And then I was back! 

Back in Greece!

Where the sun was shining!

Γειά σας
Μετά από απουσία μερικών μηνών ήρθε η ώρα να επιστρέψω.
Απ 'οτι φαινεται ο καιρος έχει αρχίσει να κρυώνει αισθητά και αυτό προδιαθέτει ιδιαίτερα σε στιγμές χουχουλιάσματος στον καναπε με ρόφημα κακάο και αφθονη Kinder που μόλις έκλεψα από τον αδερφό μου. Τελευταία κάνω μια προσπάθεια να αντικαταστήσω το λατρευτό ρόφημα σοκολάτας με κακάο που είναι πολυ πιο υγειινό αλλα το οποίο προφανώς είναι πολυ πικρό και νερουλό με αποτέλεσμα να πεφτω με τα μούτρα και πάλι στις σοκολάτες #fail

Στο διάστημα που πέρασε απείχα απο το blogακι μου καθώς περνώ μια δύσκολη φάση αλλά συνειδητοποίησα ότι μου δίνει πολύ χαρά και αποφάσισα να αφήσω τον εαυτό μου να εκφραστεί πιο ελεύθερα χωρίς να προσπαθώ να περιοριστώ στις προδιαγραφές ενος fashion blog όπως αρχικα ξεκίνησα.

Μιας και ακόμα δεν έχω μπει στον κόπο να φτιάξω τον υπολογιστή μου αρκούμαι στο να σκαλίζω τον εξωτερικο σκληρο μου δίσκο και να ξεθάβω υλικό απο προηγούμενα ταξίδια οπότε αυτή είναι μια καλή ευκαιρία να μοιραστώ μαζι σας καποιες από τις εμπειρίες μου.Στο επόμενο post μου σκοπεύω να σας παρουσιάσω την έκθεση "Bodies" στη Νεα Υόρκη. Για κάποιες το θέαμα μπορεί να μην είναι πολύ ευχάριστο αλλά εγώ προσώπικά ενθουσιάστηκα και θα περιμένω να ακούσω τη γνώμη σας.

Και σε περίπτωση που δεν το προσέξατε απο εδώ και στο εξής θα γράφω και στα ελληνικά!

Hey guys
After being absent for some months it was time for me to come back.
The weather has gotten much colder and for me that means snuggling at the couch enjoying a cup of hot cocoa and lots of Kinder chocolate I just stole from my brother. Lately I 've been trying to to replace  chocolate drinks with cocoa drinks which are much healthier but not as tasty.They are actually bitter and watery and so I end up eating lots of chocolate instead.  #fail

It has been a while since my last post mainly because I am going through some rough times but I realized that blogging gives my pleasure, so I decided to let myself free and to express myself without trying to make this entirely a fashion blog as I had initially planed.

Since my computer isn't fixed yet, I spent my time digging at my external hard disk and finding pictures from my old trips, so I think this could be a good opportunity for me to share with you some of my experiences.For my next post I want to introduce you to "The Bodies Exhibition" in New York. Some of you might not find it very pleasant ; I personally loved it and I would like to hear your opinion.
