decided to call in the New Year by being pleasantly wasted (under the excuse of taking use of excellent wine). He's currently spinning happily around in his living room, various native pop songs turned up loud.

had sent all the nations D&G gloves, scarves - or boxers for Christmas! (Because they sorely needed it.) He let out a small shriek at the British abomination of a cookbook in his home, warily inching closer..

wanders slowly around a town square, going from window to window to see if any of the shops had what he was looking for.

lets himself into Romano's house, having brought with him some newspaper and magazine cut-outs and pictures.

sat by the window in a Venetian café, enjoying a small bowl of gelato.

chatting up a local woman right outside the hotel, smiling warmly as he got her to laugh.

dozed off in one of the chairs in the lobby of the hotel while waiting for Romano.

had sat down on a bench with a paper pad somewhere to sketch down whatever caught his interest, but had gotten lost in thought...

had spent all of last night painting in his living room, the canvas in front of the couch which he'd eventually fallen asleep on.

had come across the house of someone he knows. He decided to pay them a surprise visit, but having found the house empty he went to have a siesta on their couch.
