Autumn has really taken hold in Milan, and that famous seasonal attraction, vendors of roasted chestnuts, can be seen in the streets everywhere. Well, I get a little tired of writing just about go every month, and my readers are probably even more sick of reading about it. So this month I'd like to talk about the topic you're all most interested in. Yes, Italian men.
Italian men are very good at chatting up women.
This was the advice everyone in Japan gave me before I left. I would have screamed if I'd heard it one more time. So I was forewarned when I came to Milan . . . There have been two occasions in these last three and a half years when I suspected that a guy was trying to chat me up. Actually, it was zero for the first two years or so.
