Milan - University of Cattolica



These photos are in no particular order, but are a few of my favorites from my time teaching Design Thinking at the University of Cattolica May 21 - June 1, 2017.

The courtyard of Cattolica

The arch at the Castelano Park I frequently ran around.

Another Panini Durini breakfast :)

Love the fashion!

Mathilda's 4th birthday party


Bascilica

Sunday brunch!  Eggs for breakfast are hard to come by, so was thrilled for this special treat.

This "throne" cracked me up.

Candles lit after mass at the basilica at Cattolica

 A pic of Caden's favorite dog I took for him.


Massimo and Mathilda at the Prada Art Museum we visited


Morning run



One of the cool bikes...

Dinner at Cario e Camilla... such a cool experience.  Many drink and food shots below.




Massimo's drink





Massimo, Jemimah (Paul's daughter), Paul (a visiting prof from Australia, and Chiara)

Our yummy dishes...









No words for croissants in Italy.  Here I was biding my time before meeting the students at Frog.

I LOVE Bike.Mi!  And I love how people bike everywhere.  Bikes always have a seat or two for kids and you see men and women of all ages dressed for work making there way around.



The class at Frog Design in Milan.

Obica

My pizza at Obica.  The photo speaks for itself.



Cattolica photos at night.  Sigh.


Early morning run.

Looking down the street at the Microsoft House


Another cool restaurant with Chiara introduced me too.  So cool.

My walk to class...

Looking back at where I was staying - the grey building just pass the billboard.

The aperitif we had on the last day of class.

The walkway I took many times a day...



One of the teams presenting their concept.

One of the awesome prototypes created by one of the teams in my class.

Two of my favorite people :)

The main building at Cattolica.  Inside there was a large grassy courtyard surrounded by classroom and office space.  It reminded me of Harry Potter's Hogwarts school.

My class doing their first warm-up activity

The building I was teaching in.

My first breakfast of many in Milan at Panini Durini :)  This day it was a salmon sandwich, but I typically had avacadoe toast.
