Gluttonous Epicurean

Food post!

First is a photo of the interior of Caffe Sabatino. The cappuccino was about 1.50 euro, the cheapest one of my roommates found in Florence, and it was really close to our apartment. Around tourist attractions such as the Duomo, one could spend anywhere from 3-5 euro for a cup. The staff here are very friendly, we were starting to become regulars. I really miss this place. Swing by for a visit if in the area! Here is their website: http://www.caffesabatino.it/

The two photos directly below were taken at Caffe Sabatino, as well. The tarts were especially delicious. I particularly enjoyed the fruit one. My favorite cappuccino is also pictured. Every time I had a cappuccino outside of Florence it just wasn't as tasty.

This photo is of one of many caffe lattes I consumed, and like the cappuccino in Italy, are much better than in North America. I mean, you can't even compare. I paid around $4.50 Canadian for a cappuccino when I came back to Canada and it tasted so bad I was shocked, and barfed a little...ok not really, but come on!!

Last but not least for this post, a photo of one of the many fruit trees in Florence. This was at the Corsini Gardens.

OMG and the hazelnut yogurt! Don't even get me started...mmm..

Italy, I miss you!

At The Corsini Gardens | Florence, Italy

Very fashionable man at the Corsini Gardens during an artisan fair in Florence. I love that pink scarf.

Back In Canada

I'm back!

First on the agenda is addressing these gorgeous chandeliers. I believe these were in the Palazzo Medici in Firenze.

Almost 1 Week

My trip to Italy is in about a week and I can't be more excited. I've been browsing photographs of Florence and am in awe already. I'm so glad to be going on this trip. I hope to learn a lot from the experience.

I'm typing this on my new Macbook Pro I bought the other day in celebration of entering the professional life as an illustrator/designer since graduating college.

So excited for this next chapter in my life.

Italy

I'm going to be traveling to Italy in less than a month. I plan to post many pictures and sketches from my trip on this blog. I can't wait to eat delicious food and see the old architecture and the numerous master paintings and sculptures. I just want to immerse myself in the culture and let go of all the stress from graduating college.

Separate Blog

I wanted to create a separate blog from garethadamson.blogspot.com, which is my Illustration/Design blog. Aesthetic Enthusiast is for inspirational purposes. I will be posting fashion-related news and inspirations that I find interesting. In addition, inspirations in art and nature will also be showcased.
