My life in Modena (IX)

This week, I climbed to the top of leaning tower of Pisa, tried spaghetti Toscana and the best Pizza I ever had in my life...thanks to my colleague who brought me to the Pizzeria in Campegine near Modena.

My life in Modena (VIII)

In the busy weeks, I spent most of the time working and non visitato around. Sometimes I may ride my old bike to the town to send a mail in the post office, and have una gelato con fragola e pistacchio, it is so tasty I never had before.  The food here is so heavy,  with pizza, pasta, and Turkish Kabab full of meat, that I started to like eating olives and salads with local Balsamic vinegar, together with fresh fruits for lunch, and drink 33cc Birra moretti every night. There is a big mulberry tree outside my casa; the new fruits start to drop on the ground, and I woud pick some dark ones from the branches, to taste, and the sweetness drew back my childhood in my hometown...

My life in Modena (VII)

In the eighth weekend, a colleague invited me to visit Rimini, a beautiful old town on the east coast, and the hometown of Federico Fellini, a famous tourist town for the beach. I tried the popular local food, Piadina, something like French Crepe but without eggs, and mostly with local ham fillings. We also played mini-golf, and I won, I might be good at this game, since the last time I played it was 15 years ago.
