If we were only in Milan for 24 hours, where would you take us? Start the day with a “power” breakfast at Biancolatte and have a walk in Brera district’s narrow streets, then head to the centre for lunch at Il Salumaio and a quick visit to Palazzo Bagatti Valsecchi. The afternoon is all about shopping in “Quadrilatero della Moda” and a visit to the latest exhibition at Palazzo Morando in Via Sant’Andrea. No way to leave Milan before having drinks at Ceresio 7 (hottest spot in town by DSquared2) and dining at Giacomo Bistrot, a real classic for a doc Milanese day.

Best coffee? Sant'Ambroeus.

Favorite Italian getaway: Villa D’Este – Cernobbio (Como).

Pizza or pasta? Gnocchi!

Campari or vino? Vino, vino and vino.

We feel like dancing, where can we go? Let’s Plastic!

Your top 3 cities in Italy: Syracuse, Portofino, and Forte dei Marmi.

What is on your stereo? Lost – Frank Ocean.

And what is your Italian themesong? Nothing more Italian than the Italian National Anthem “Inno di Mameli”.

Life motto? Nothing is worth more than this day. And life is beautiful!
