    [​IMG] Florence, Florentia... Firenze.


    I've always sorta liked that name. Flourishing.


    Of the 1000 most prominent or influential artists of the last millenium, nearly 400 lived or worked in Florance (Tusc(i)a/ny), Italy at some point... and it was the home of the Renaissance, so I really don't think naming of the city wasn't a coincidence. Athens of the middle ages... It's almost a spiritual or biblical feeling I get. t's just that there's also the dark, dirty feeling about it.. in that it was established in the few decades leading to the birth of Christ, the plague, and the pollution today. Strangely enough, I know a jeweler in my town, descended from the Medici family, the... historically, ruling family, of Florence.

    It's just one of those places I've always wanted to see. Dark, flailing, graceful at the same time.

    I've been to Florence, it's incredibly hot due to being in a valley also they have Rat like creatures that live in the river there that are literally the size of Labradors, literally, they're fucking huge.

    Hey, just because you can't translate doesn't mean it isn't there, but it'll never be the same, either. :D
