New York, USA vs. Florence, Italy
Long time no post…
Toby and I just got back from a trip to Italy to celebrate one year of marriage. Rome and Venice were nice and all, but Florence really made an impression on me. Bikes and pedistrains own the streets with scooters coming in a close third. Cars, while certainly present, don’t dominate like they do here in New York.
Why do I bring all this up? While we were away, what you see in the video below happened in New York City. After that is a video of what it’s like biking in Florence. Compare/contrast.
