My First Time in Milan, Italy 🇮🇹

I catch up on where I've been the last two weeks, talking about my day trip to Girne from Nicosia (in the unofficial Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus). I then flash back to my first time in Milan, Italy, showing some of the city and explaining where I'm heading next.

I'm Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and KZreadr who's been to 55 countries. I've been travelling around the world full-time since 2017. So far, my trips have taken me to Asia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East and the Americas.
I have travel series' from many of the world's best (and least) known destinations. I filmed the first vlogs on my channel in the summer of 2016 after spending a year living in China. A proper solo trip around Eastern Europe followed after graduating from University in the summer of 2017, taking me to Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Kosovo. This trip marked the start of my efforts to make a KZread full-time job.
After that European trip I went heavily into exploring Asia, visiting India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea and Kazakhstan (seeing me cover a lot of Far East and Southeast Asia in particular).
I have also travelled to North Africa and the Middle East fairly extensively over the last five years, filming videos in Turkey, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan, Israel and Palestine.
To date, I have not yet been to Australasia or South America. Though I am hoping to visit the latter sometime in 2022, along with a first stop in the Caribbean.
I've travelled to North America just once as a KZreadr, visiting Mexico in 2021. Though I have been to both the USA and Canada, this was as a child on family holidays.
So far in 2022 I've taken my first trip to Sub Saharan Africa, visiting both Kenya and Tanzania, before making my way to the Middle East, stopping in Dubai and Lebanon. Europe followed, starting with Cyprus, covering both the Greek and Turkish sides of the divided island.

    I am very happy to see that the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus has remained immune to the ever-changing fashions that have seen its southern neighbour become a somewhat homogenous ‘tourist destination’ where the native cuisine has been replaced by generic fast food franchises; arts and craft markets replaced by malls. Where local café, restaurant and bar nightlife has been swamped by ‘theme’ pubs and night clubs. Not that there’s anything wrong with that but some say it has lost the very ‘soul’ that first drew visitors to these delightful shores. TRNC offers its visitors the "real Cyprus Feeling" with its less costly lifestyle, traditional Turkish Culture and the crime free zone even after dark.

    Love Milan. Was lucky enough to get to the derby at the San Siro many years ago, and it was incredible. Milan's culture is more hidden away than Rome, for example, but still very much worth exploring. Worth looking around I Navigli too - a nice canal area. The Last Supper is very impressive at first sight, but once you learn about how Leonardo used the golden ratio in it, then it becomes something quite breathtaking.

    I was so impressed by the setting and the fresco of Last Supper. I had no idea it was so large. Also impressive was the equally large fresco on the opposite wall. The experience kind of took my breath away being in the presence of one of the most famous works of art. When I first stood in line (for 45 minutes) I found that I was just buying a ticket for a 4 PM entry. So to while away the time I went to the Sforza Palace and spent a couple of hours gawking at all within including the last and unfinished sculpture of Michelangelo. Capped that day off with a wonderful dinner of Milanese food. It was quite a day.

    Enjoyed the video. I'm very curious about Northern Cyprus now, and have added it to my ever-growing list of places to visit! It wasn't really clear from the video, but do they drive on the left there, as they do in the south? A quick point about your Morocco trip. Unless you're planning to fly to Laayoune in Western Sahara and to head south from there, I'm afraid you won't be heading into The Sahara. Many tour companies lead unsuspecting tourists to believe that they're in The Sahara, when in fact they're in one of the Ergs, which I'm afraid are not part of The Sahara. This is particularly annoying to those in the know, especially if people are following a lifelong dream to visit The Sahara, only to find out after the event that they haven't actually been there at all. Not that the Ergs are not impressive though, particularly Erg Chebbi, which has some wonderful dunes. Some of the other Ergs are less impressive, unfortunately. Fingers crossed that your trip includes Erg Chebbi! 😊

He was quite emotionally upset at seeing the desecration of our churches and cemeteries on our way up there and would not go in the castle because he felt insulted that he should be made to pay. Not a good experience for us on the whole.

    Went to Milan years ago but sadly it was probably the worst place I went. Wasn't much to see there. But anyone who goes to Milan should definitely take the train to Lake Como...the trains are much cheaper in Italy than they are in the UK. There's so many places you can take the train to but when we went, we only realised at the end of our holiday. Don't bother with the AC/Inter Milan museum as they don't even let you take photos. They don't tell you that until after you have brought tickets. Jason you should visit Porto in Portugal. That's a really nice place.

    I’m not the biggest Milan fan. Apart from that very impressive church and the adjacent Galleria, it is quite an underwhelming city and In my opinion, the least attractive city in the country. Miles and miles of houses and flats and sprawling suburbs apart from that pristine pocket where you went. It’s all about shopping and your social status, the general vibe of the place is just off. Italians from Milan, don’t come for me… Just Not my cup of ‘espresso’ 😆
