Milano


So I went to Europe thinking "hey how bad is it going to be... I survived China where no one spoke my languages and I didn't theirs", so I didn't take a phrase book with me... Man was I wrong... While it was not as bad as I have made it to sound, the discomfort was still non-zero... Between the language and the system, I did not know how to find my seat in the train - the ticket are not in English and the seat numbers are not that straight forward... Does North America do things in a more intuitive manner or am I just used to the North American system?? Hey but the seat numbers in Sri Lankan trains are pretty straight forward too... Despite their many shortcomings, train seat numbering is not one of them in SL...
