It’s amazing how different a place could look from near - and then from far.

After hitting a new city, something inside me makes me want to climb to the highest point. And look all around me.. I think I found it here, in the French Riviera:)

@ Monaco

There are a lot of places in the world that look good only at night, or only in the daytime. Monaco is one of those places that looks good at both times of the day, and sunset, and sunrise, and even in my daydreams...
(seriously, even the police station looks good)

I finally decided to take a walk around the place...what can I say? Curiosity got the best of me ;)
See that face I made? That’s my ‘am I even in the picture?’ face :)

@ Monte-Carlo, Monaco

I was casually walking around Monaco thinking I was passing through preparations for the Grand Prix. Monaco is essentially the nucleus of luxury in the world. Everything is perfect. Even the air is scented! I knew I recognized the area and the places I was seeing, but I wasn’t sure how, or from where...

Surprisingly, enjoying Monaco was cheaper than most other cities that I’ve been to in Europe and elsewhere, with a much higher quality of EVERYTHING.

Seriously, if you haven’t been, I highly recommend it. It is SOOO choice!

Passing through Florence, it’s impossible to miss Brunelleschi's Dome, at the Basilica of Saint Mary of the Flower.
It’s a mountain of a monument, with a ton of history packed within.

On to Florence, or Firenzia, as the Italians call it. The home of Michelangelo’s statue of David, standing 17 feet tall (5.17 meters) at the Galleria dell’Accademia, it was Michelangelo’s commissioned tribute to the biblical hero of the same name when battling Goliath.
It was moved several times in order to keep it protected and preserved, and at once stood in the Piazza della Signoria at the seat of government, where it was unveiled in 1504. The statue itself, due to its context in the Bible has come to symbolize the defence of civil liberties embodied in the Republic of Florence, an independent city-state threatened on all sides by more powerful rival states and by the political and possibly military dominance of the Medici family.
It’s a bit of a heavy one, made completely of marble, it weighs roughly six tons!
If you look toward his left foot you could see the damage done by a reportedly mentally-disturbed artist by a hammer in 1991, and what you see is the result of the restoration done. @ Galleria dell'Accademia
