Sun daze ✨🇮🇹 Crack of dawn; scenes from Bologna 🇮🇹 Peak bloom, peak happiness ✨
Went for a free walking tour in Florence, met some lovely people and basically spent the rest of our time in this beautiful city joined at the hip with them. Our tour guide @rubinagoel was one of them and she took us to the Oblate Library where she was meeting someone later for a study sesh and holy mole, can you believe that view of the Duomo? Uff! A treasure in plain sight. ✨ Like almost every other building in Florence, this building is not just a library as one would imagine it to be. It goes back thousands of years and it was originally the oldest hospital in Florence and was built by someone who wanted reparations for the sins he committed. A few years later, the convent of the Oblate was built here and a secular order of women made these cloisters/hospital their home. They devoted their lives to taking care of sick women and the order lived there until 1936. The Oblate word is Latin and refers to someone who dedicates their life to others. ✨ Today dozens of students (and some lucky tourists) come here, drinking fresh juice, studying, and just soaking in the views. If you wake up in Florence one day, go check out this library, the sunset is especially great here as you can tell :) ✨ @bittewarten_ @niveeet @anna.wishnowsky @deepesh_nair Spent a couple of hours in the beautiful city of Bologna last year. To @deepesh's dismay, I insisted we rent bikes and bike through the city in the short time we had and I'm so glad we did it. We made it our flight so I think he's glad too 🤪 We whizzed through this beautiful medieval city, ducking in and out of its many porticos as the sun was just coming up. This historic center is dotted with medieval buildings and their walls are the colors of autumn: Tuscan yellows, faded amber and burnt orange standing out even more because of the golden sunlight. Can't wait to go back and spend more than just a few hours. 🇮🇹‍♀️ Named after el Diablo himself, this lake tucked away in the North Cascades National Park is simply stunning. I mean, look at the views. The glacial silt in the lake give it a rich bluish-green color 🤩Probably the best road trip I'll ever be on this year @srilaksh.ramaswamy.
