During Pierre and my first-ever European adventure in 2018, visiting Milan was a must for me, as it was part of my goal to explore all the world’s fashion capitals. I was genuinely excited. However, our experience turned out to be quite disappointing. Despite the city’s undeniable beauty, certain aspects made it hard for us to fully appreciate it. If we ever return—which seems unlikely—it would probably be just for shopping or as a brief stopover on our way to another destination in Italy. That said, we did manage to take some lovely photos, so here they are.
