I don’t know why, but for a brief moment I thought that the man from the first photo is brewing beer... like this craft brewery:
In fact this is in Sliven where “Трима и двама” brew their beers.
Great post and... I’m envious about Italy! I promise to go soon!
Everybody sees what wants to see, my friend ;) You will be happy with food in Italy, that’s obvious but surprisingly they have some good beers as well. And no, I’m not talking about Peroni ;) Thanks a lot for the comment!
