At the Cimitero, we ran into my friend Idil, who was showing her sister around. Isn't it just really random to meet friends at a cemetary??? Afterwards we enjoyed lunch at Corso Como and saw more of the city. At night, our other classmate Nina, who also lives in Milano came to join us and together we went to La Padellacia (third time in a week... we're on a diet now). Some fun time at the "Johann Sebastian Bar" afterwards, with a lot of crazy stuff going on (hint: it includes 60 year old barbies and trans-sexuals) was the next stop.
Obviously, this implied we got up late on Sunday again. Not really a problem, because we only went to a museum (the Pinacoteca di Brera), where I found out later that we missed Idil and friends by about 10 minutes again... It is a small city when people have visitors!
This morning, Bastiaan and Anne left again. By taxi this time, at 4.30AM, because walking people to the station is really quite a hassle at that time of the night.
All in all, it was a really enjoyable weekend! It was great to them and we had a great time.
Something completely different, if anyone is ever consider a new career, I have an idea. Become a Quantitative Gastronomist! I recently received news about a Conference in Gastronometrica and I reckon it is an awesome science to be involved in! You get to research the quantitative aspects of such interesting topics like "How did American food get so bad?", "Are you what you eat? Experimental evidence on health habits and economic
behaviour" and "Stars War over French Gastronomy"... I am definitely in the wrong field!!!
Ciao,
