Dear Diary, Today I was in a quiet little cafe in Milan. There was a small group of four people sitting at another table apart from that the cafe was empty. I saw a grand piano sitting in the room and because hardly anybody was around i decided to play a song. So I played Prelude in A major by Chopin and when i looked up the other table were looking. As i walked past a girl named Valia said i was good and we started chatting. Turns out the four of them were on a Pilgrimage and just came from Israel and after Italy they were going to Tibet. I started talking about how I used go to the Theosophical Society for Kabbalah and Tarot card classes in Sydney. Then they invited me to go with them to see the Duomo Cathedral (which is where i was going anyway) but yeah i thought that it would be good to go with like minded people. Valia spoke excellent english because she is from england. So there was no communication blockages there, but there was some with Anglea she joined the group in Israel. So i had to speak slower so she could understand. But she spoke english pretty good. Angela told me she became a Christan because she wanted to be a housewife... and because there was a high amount of Christians in Italy, she was looking for a man. I just thought she was looking for some male chauvinist to use power against her in a relationship. I didnt like her much. I decided to go to the Duomo Cathedral because I've always had an interest in religion and secret orders. Plus the gargoyles were cool as well. The stain glass windows were really cool when the light shone on them. It was great. We got by on Justins knowlegde of Italian language he spoke it fluently to the people when we got in the Cathedral. As a tourist we experience arrogance and a lack of service because few italians spoke english.
