"mercato di itchy" (translates to flea market)

on the bus, just passed the "mercato di itchy" - translated in jenn's italian speakto flea market...soundtrack for milan today is the arcade fire's "funeral" album...stomach a little weak today, maybe a tad too much chianti and gin&tonica. i'm beginning to find my element of comfort in a handful of people here and it is nice to begin to feel like "me" and the reservations are falling away. last evening a bunch of peoples metro-ed to the "colonnade" - saw a skateboarding dof and sat at the pub counter...the colonnade is an amazing gathering space and it's nice to see a city entrust such places to their habitants. i've noticed i've been taking many pictures of doors and the handles...for some reason i'm fascinated by the details of everything here...
