Anyway, gelato is the most important food of Venice especially if you’re a broke student. I practically lived on it.

Small bakeries are great places to stop when you’re lost in Venice and tired after walking for hours.

Pasta at the supermarket in Venice :P

Fucking tiny lasagna. Beware of overpriced and touristy restaurants that serve tiny quantities of food. I paid twelve euros for this!

A chocolate shop :)

Hotel snacks before our night out. Also don’t forget to try lots of Bellini, it’s an awesome mix of peach and champagne.

Cafe’s are a good place to grab a quick bite of affordable pizza and/or a sandwich when you’re on the go, which was most of the time for us since we were obsessed with seeing as much art as possible in six days.

It felt like a fantasy city. Lost tourists everywhere, traffic lights on the canals, and petrol pumps for taxi’s which are speedboats. Gondola’s are exorbitant and ridiculously expensive, but the entire venice experience is worth at least five days.

One of the many burial mounds that surround Stonehenge. It’s a nice walk  if the weather is good.

Two more burial mounds in the distance.

Sheep!

A swan on the Avon river, we passed this on 45 min. walk back to Amesbury from Stonehenge.

2. Enter the supermarket from where you plan to buy the alcohol.

3. Pick up your chosen beverage, snacks and supplies.

4. Go to the counter.

5. At the till, keep your ID ready and be positive.

6. If you are lucky, they will accept your ID. If not they will inform you that they only accept UK identification and/or an INTERNATIONAL driver’s license. In these sad cases, my Indian driving license, Indian PAN card, and student ID from the United Nations is deemed suspect. (All 3 id’s prove that I’m 25 with a photo).

7. If you’re ID is rejected due it not being issued by an EU or UK authority (United Nations is not counted) do not fret. Most importantly do not argue. Do not tell them that you cannot possible carry your passport everywhere with you. Do not tell them that other stores have accepted this ID several times before. Do not tell them that your passport is with the Italian embassy and what are you supposed to do now?

8. Be positive. After all, this proves that you look below 18 (Yeah right).

9. Go to an off-license store. They accept Id’s not from the UK/EU. They are open till late and have more choices anyway. The End.

A detailed post on the art work I found inspiring is here.

I had terrible luck yesterday though. It was too crowded because I forgot it was Saturday, an annoying good-looking blonde next to me took ten minutes to decide what to have, the bartender ignored me in favour of the blonde (of course), the guy behind me dropped his drink on my boots, and when I waved at another bartender to get his attention, a third one said I should stop waving or I would never get a drink. Now check out some random fan messages left for 60 mpc in the girls bathroom:
