Dear Giuliana & Silvia,
Coming back from THE fabulous and so famous town, the one which everybody talks : Venice!
Would you imagine how you expect to get many pictures, many feelings when you go to this town.
And would you imagine that you find them.
We had a particular chance that we did not expect at all: we met you who let us the opportunity to see a real venetian private space.
In the street, you asked us if we were interested in seeing a specific venetian place, in seeing a place where venetian people live in this so touristic town.
Of course, it aroused our curiosity. And we decided to follow you.
First, we penetrated in a huge and incredible XVI century hall, took an elevator until the ?? stair and went in a small flat, mixing a specific venetian ceramics floor and a modern and useful pieces of furniture.
This flat was small (for 4 students) and cosy.
The thing we really appreciated was to see Venice from the interior cause in this town we tend to forget that “real people” live in. We really enjoyed discover the trips of water from the upstairs room.
And, we liked to get the experience that other tourists would not really have.
When we come back home, we were happy to tell our friends about this amazing meeting, this occurred something different in our touristic trip.
Thank you for this experience and good luck for your project.
Isabelle & Benoit
