I was sixteen when I visited Italy. For a teen, Italy is the most wonderful place to visit. You meet beautiful people and get pinched in the butt by cute boys. which makes it worth the trip. hahaha! Just kidding.

And when the hormones stop doing the thinking of you, you still marvel at all the beautifully preserved monuments of history as well as envision the relaxing picture of the countryside.

It is no wonder there are a lot of Italophiles out there. People who fell in love with Italy and have taken everything Italian to their hearts.

I wasn't a coffee drinker before, but after the trip and after having tasted capuccino. I was hooked. Probably because whenever I drink coffee and sit back, the feeling sort of reminds me of when I was a teen - sitting at some piazza restaurant sipping the drink while watching all the people pass by with smiles on their faces.
