hello and welcome to the more touristy vlog of my time in milan so yeah if you haven't watched
my previous video you might be a bit confused but essentially i'm currently meant to be on
my year abroad at the moment and i've spent some time in italy already because i study italian but
i also study german and the german government is being really really strict on who can enter
germany at the moment and they're only allowing eu countries to enter um really and obviously
because the uk isn't an eu country anymore i can't directly go there so fortunately
italy is still letting people from the uk in so i'm staying here for a few days in various
parts of italy and then i'm finally going to germany so yeah that's just a summary really
i'm still obviously in the middle of my course in germany my online course so i don't have
bags of time to explore milan which is a shame but fortunately i have already been to milan
so it's not like i'm here and i've never actually been here that would be so frustrating i am gonna
obviously in this vlog explore milan for a bit and take you guys along with me of course be
sure to watch my other vlog of that from a couple of years ago of milan if you want to see me go to
more of the well-known places in milan but yeah without any further ado let's get into it i really
really hope that this outfit is cool enough i'm kind of lacking really really short sleeve tops
so i had a lecture at half past eight this morning and i have another one at quarter past
four obviously i need to get back for that but yeah i feel like i'm finally getting to
experience what it's like being an erasmus student like studying and exploring whichever foreign city
you're in in between lectures yeah i feel like i'm finally experiencing what i've signed up for
i bought a granita because i've missed these so much these are like slushies
but way better italians do them way better i've got a lecture now my laptop battery is a bit
um sporadic at the moment i think it's because it's quite old i've had this laptop for almost
five years now and i've never like replaced the battery or anything yeah in short i'm really
scared of like going out and like because it doesn't last on the battery for too long
just on the battery without being plugged in so i thought i might as well come back and do
the lecture here but i'm hoping to still do a bit of sightseeing afterwards see you in a bit
hello so i've just finished my second and last lecture of the day
and i'm about to head out again yeah i don't know why i'm wearing my mask right now
um basically there's a part of milan which i haven't been to yet which i'm really curious about
and i have a really good view of it from my bedroom so it just makes me really want
to go there and i've seen on google maps that you can actually get there by tram
it takes about an hour but i haven't experienced riding on the milan trams yet myself i've seen
plenty of them but i haven't actually gone on them myself um and i know that it's like a really
iconic part of yeah just city life milan you get the metro back but yeah i think it's gonna be
a really scenic ride because it goes all the way through the city i've um bought an all-day ticket
um well a 24-hour ticket so i can actually use it tomorrow morning as well probably going to be
quite montagey but yeah i hope you enjoy this ride with me
all right hi guys so um i just got on the tram it's like quite old-fashioned i really like the look of it it's like wooden seats and stuff
i just love it um and the thing is i'm a bit confused because i'm the only person who got on
and like everyone went off i think it's because it's the terminus so when i got on like i was
the only person who stayed on there um but like i validated my ticket and that said it was all fine
and now the driver just got off but he's probably having a break or something but yeah i think i'm
doing the right thing but um yeah we'll see i feel like in some places in england you would like pay
a special like i don't know like vintage heritage kind of premium for this so i think it's cool that
it's included in the general transport but yeah i'm looking forward to this whenever it departs
okay this kind of reminds me of the city of london or the financial district
but in my opinion it's way more interesting than the city of london because
there's just so much here so many different things
and like it's after the working day and it's still very much lively so yeah i just love it
i'm back in my hotel room now i hope that you've enjoyed today's vlog i'm not quite sure how it's
going to turn out because i don't know it seems quite random like what i filmed but
um yeah i hope that you enjoyed it um i am very aware that like
i haven't really shown that much of milan but yeah once again if you do want to see a i don't know i
guess the more detailed vlog of milan then please check out my other one from a couple of years ago
i can't promise you the quality of that though because that was like
ages ago when i had only really first started youtube and before i sort of did it properly
also another thing i wanted to add was that i think that going by tram seeing milan from the
tram is like a really efficient way of seeing the city especially if you've got a day ticket or even
a 90 minute ticket like the 90 minute tickets cost only two euros and the day tickets cost
seven euros or like the 24 hour one so it can like span more than one day if you time it right
so yeah i just think it's a really quick and cheap and efficient way of seeing the city
so yeah i recommend that if you don't have that much time to see milan and also city life i know
that that's like probably the least italian thing that's in this city but i just think
it's so cool that there's an actual place called 'city life' like a place with an english name in
a non-english speaking country so yeah i don't know i just wanted to see what that was all about
really rambling now so i hope that you did enjoy it and please give this video a thumbs
up if you did and subscribe if you haven't done already and you've made it this far i
think you will like my other videos if you have i will see you in another video very soon bye
