My current career you don't really get the enjoyment of making something with your hands so

Aye good ol' italian food

And tbf gaining some weight wouldn’t be a bad thing for me

I need to visit Italy for the culinary tourism

Yeah uh I don't think I've ever been near underweight in my life

I wasn't fat as a kid but certainly not underweight

Been to Rome 3 times, northern Italy twice and the Florence/Venice region once, and Italy is such an amazing place

First time in Naples though

Aw hell yeah. One of my friends who had never been overseas and was very skeptical of european countries (he's Arab) and their culture had to go to northern italy, and he loved it

Said it was the best time of his life

@Bacon Florence and venice aren't the same place

I know they aren’t

Florence region is called Tuscany and the land around Venice is called Verona

I know. But they’re pretty close nonetheless

It's a pity there's all those Italians in Italy

Otherwise it'd be perfect

Neeeeevermind. They’re not close. At all

I remember the driving much shorter than it probably was

It's only 250 km?

That's not far at all

Yeah but it’s far enough to have an entire region separating them

Man it's weird to be reminded of how small European countries are

Russia obviously doesn't count

Oof I’m from Israel. It’s only 400km from top to bottom. Around 35km from west to east not including West Bank

Ahem, JUDEN

But yeah that's tiny lol

In the more populated areas that is

107 km is the widest area

So see that estimated driving time from Florence to Venice? I travel that every day to work lol (in total)

Jesus

It's about ~130 km to my work

How do you do that every day lmao

I read books and do work, pretty much

It sucks but I make good money so I can live with it

I’m still in highschool, but my parents only live around 12km away from work. It’s around 1 hour drive time though because of traffic

They’re doctors so the hospital is at the very center of Tel Aviv

Yeah I wish

Even when I was in highschool I had to travel about 40km

Which seems like a blessing compared to now

Damn. I live roughly 5 km from my highschool

And in middle school it was around 300m
