Trip to France and Italy

So I'm finalllly updating my blog since I can get on VPN in order to log in. Yes... China is STILL ridiculous what can I say? Now they have gone as far as blocking facebook. How dare they??? I wonder what is next... I vote Google.

Long story short, went to France and Italy for a vacation. Fantastic place. Loved it... I told myself that I would not go to Italy until I was able to travel around the country but just couldn't help it. It was sooooo amazing. I want to go back. As for the French... I have something else to say about that. It is completely true what people say about the French. I had to teach a sales lady a lesson at Hermes. By the way, NEVER EVER buy Hermes in France or any other country besides Hong Kong because I learned the hard way that the watch I bought my sister is much cheaper in Hong Kong (WHERE SHE LIVES!!) I carried the damn watch all the way back from France because the sales person said that it was BY FAR cheaper to purchase in France! What a crock of sh*t. She just wanted her commission. Actually, take my advice, just don't purchase anything from Hermes. I went to return the watch and the store held onto the merchandise for two weeks before even sending me a confirmation that they had received it and will refund my credit card. What a terrible company. Whoever reads this, DO NOT purchase from Hermes. Again, they are the worst company ever. How can they legitimately hold onto a returned item, hold onto my money of over $2500USD AND not respond to any of my emails demanding the return of my money? Unbelievable... those righteous ass*s! Again, whoever reads this please do not ever buy from this company. I have never been treated so poorly by a company in my life. As they say "only the French..."

OK so besides that crap, I want to go back to Italy as soon as possible. We went to Paris, Antibes, Monte Carlo, San Remo and Nice. It was magnifique! I am in love with Italy (have I said that enough??) I have been wanting to go there for the longest time, but held out in hopes that someday, that would be my honeymoon destination. Oh well... maybe this broke that spell! The food... the people...the sights...the romance of the country is just amazing. True, not many people work as hard as other countries, but they all just seem so darn happy. I want to be there... I want to be them. Wish they had some jobs there. All in all I am definitely going back soon again. Never know... maybe I might find my Italian prince :)

Until next time...
