“small biz owners who don’t know how to run a biz and adapt to a changing market”
I passed by a public park market in the Foce section of Genoa yesterday.
The merchants seemed to offer a good selection of merchandise at fair prices.
I loved Florence. We stayed in the center of town right on the piazza across from the Ufizzi Gallery. I did not see one homeless person the whole time I was there. The city was clean too.
Even in Rome where we stayed right around the corner from the Spanish Steps. In general I found the center of the city to be pretty clean. I can remember one homeless person lying on a sidewalk talking to herself on the way back from dinner. One homeless person in the four days we were there.
Pretty nice for a city of 3 million.
