Reading someone elses travel notes can be so insanely boring that I expect most of my 19 readers will flick off to Digby or boing boing. I have no new insights about the places, just what they trigger in me.

I don't know if it is my birthday, the economy or the locations we are
going to but one thing I know about myself is that I'm a worst case
scenerio kind of guy. Or to quote Will in Oklahoma "with me it's all
or nuthing" which can tie me into mental knots. Throw in my enhanced
ability to merge with others minds and I can find myself whip sawed by
thoughts leading to feelings.

So for example, in Assisi, St. Francis' home town, I'm thinking about
poverty, spirtuality, money and the future. In Florence, de Medici's
home town, I'm thinking of commerce, money art talent and what gets
remembered in the future. Commerce is what they are known for, but I
don't expect how intense my mind is impacted by the people around me.
I'm thinking about how to make money and running out of time to make a
"ton of money".

Is this because of all the people selling stuff at every cormer and in
the middle of the sidewalk. "Rolez watches for €22!" says the nice
Nigerian man.
