Day 198: Kebabs Make Me Think Of…

Day 198: Kebabs Make Me Think Of…

By on July 18, 2011 in Italy

Australia has so many kebab shops it isn’t even funny. I would throw the kebab into the Australian version of fast food, along with meat pies and sausage rolls, and it makes for a possible late-night food option after drinking. To be honest, I was surprised to see how popular kebabs were when arriving down under, but really… kebabs have… Read more

Day 116: Cobblestone Streets, Bad for Feet

By on April 27, 2011 in Italy

Day 57: When Sexy Vampires Make You Coffee (A Verona Memory)

By on February 27, 2011 in Italy

The movie and TV industry is full of sexy vampire talk as of late. Bucket loads full of sexy vampires.

Australia & Italia Cultural Overlap Part 1: Never Accept a Gift From an Italian Boy

By on March 26, 2010 in Australia, Italy

Italy is, and will always be, my first love. There was actually a period of time that I thought I wanted nothing more than to move to Sicily and eat cannoli and gelato on a daily basis. After getting to spend a semester of my college years in the beautiful city of Verona, I was lucky enough to learn a couple of key life lessons to factor into my life plan…
