Pinocchio in Burano by alza
Most people on here or even elsewhere will say 'You should always tell the truth, say it like it is, etc.'I don't believe in that at all. When you're writing how you feel, it's got nothing to do with the whole world's reality. It has to do with you! Facts are facts, yes. But travel touches us all differently. I could, for instance, be writing here about Venice while I'm thinking only of how I finally awakened to the fate of South America while in Venice... Anyway, do as you like, do as you feel, be true to yourself. Give me what you felt in some foreign land, even if it has nothing to do with the facts about that foreign land. I'll understand...
My experience of Burano is like that. I was in Italy, near Venice, but I heard my Argentinian friend exclaim about his country while we walked in Burano. Now, what I remember dearly, is his love for South America. So maybe this tip on a Venice page is totally useless to you, but it's priceless for me...
On a more practical level, you can get to Burano easily and cheaply. My friend bought us a 24-hour vaporetto ticket for 10 Euros, we went everywhere with it, it's worth it. Get the 10 Euro ticket!
