Inside Air of Venezia

The funniest gift I got this Christmas was from Mauro in Venice/Venezia. A heavy box filled with food goodies arrived, and together with beans, pasta and cheese was an empty bottle. Well, at least I thought it was empty until I closely read the huge letters written by back geltpen on the brown tape: INSIDE AIR OF VENEZIA

What a perfect gift. Now, when my longing for the city I am so deeply in love with gets too hard to carry, I can simply open the bottle and breath in La Serenissima´s air.

La laguna, acqua alta, vongole, old paintings, gondols, Canal Grande, the palazzios, pizza,  Mauro glass artists....... It will all be there

Oh, the Air of Venezia.

I love it.
