Venice and the Art of Travel....The Padova to Paris Journey - Part 2

"Open my heart, and you will see / Graved inside of it, Italy" - Robert BrowningWelcome to Episode #19:  Venezia, Venetia - ItalyVenice is the icing on the cake and should be sampled at least once in a lifetime or more if you are lucky.  Traveling to see this city built on over one hundred islands, linked by bridges and canals halfway between the rising and the setting sun never fails to excite and entice the curious traveler.A family day walking this city to sample the delights of the Gothic and the Byzantine, the romance, the time worn elegance, the grand palazzi, the maze of alleyways, the bridges and the magic of the canals was a sweet thing.Contemplation and wonder over travel narratives and thoughts on the art of travel.......... In truth an ever expanding world that one shall be musing over for some time.Enjoy.....© 2021 A Writer In Italy - travel, writing, art and lifeMusic Composed by Richard Johnston, © 2021Please find all Show Notes and Books mentioned at: www.michellejohnston.lifePlease subscribe, rate and/or review if you enjoyed this podcast.Instagram:  @awriterinitaly and @theyellowhouse__About A Writer in Italy Podcast:Five years ago Michelle Johnston traveled to Italy to create space for herself and her writing.  Michelle traveled solo giving herself time to recalibrate after many years of parenting and life in general.  Leaving her husband to take care of the family she reconnected with her writing, her art and her love of travel.The adventure turned into the book and travel memoir...............In the Shadow of a Cypress: An Italian AdventureSupport the show
