so we love being in a european city

hello it's ruby

and last week i traveled alone in mainland europe for the first time i'm currently writing a novel

but have recently had quite a lot of writer's block

and thought a change of scenery might just help to give me some inspiration and so i went to venice

a city which inspired byron du maurier shelley hemingway

and thomas mann i thought it might help i'm just standing here on the edge of the lagoon

and getting this really weird wave of nostalgia i don't know where it's coming from

because i haven't been here before i think it's from

when i read death in venice something like this was described and it just feels like I've already been.

It's very odd.

I genuinely still can't believe that I'm here.

I kept on back and forth -ing so much as to whether I would come or not.

I've just checked into my hotel and it's really beautiful honestly.

Like the building itself is stunning.

The room as you can see has got this wonderful brickwork here.

There's a desk, a full -length mirror.

Ignore the clothes on the bed.

I dropped off my things, checked in, and then I ventured into Venice.

I was staying in the back street and wandered over bridge and river searching for La Piazza San Marco.

My grandparents warned me that I would get lost, and I very nearly did, but I majored to La Piazza,

a space where pigeons flurry in snowdrifts and cover the square like granite tiles, and I saw what Percy Shelley described.

Its temples and palaces did seem like fabrics of enchantment piled to heaven.

So I wondered for a short while just taking in the extravagance of this square.

I noticed that there was no queue for the bell tower, la campanile.

So I bought a 10 euro ticket

and climbed to the top to see venice for the first time

and it was a wonder a pure real absolute wonder i stayed up here for about 40 minutes

and watched the sun drop the city start again with dusk ready to show the stars

which galileo actually showed the doge in 1609 from this very

same bell tower this tower arches is this perpetual reminder of things

that are bigger more important than us which is just encapsulated in the fact

that this is where Galileo showed the Doge his telescope for the first time.

After that, I wanted some more.

It's quite dirty, you're not going to lie.

And just soaked up the energy of the space, which is my favourite thing to do when arriving somewhere new.

So I just bought a gelato from Gelato Fantasy, which had so many vegan options,

and their pistachio especially was really tasty and I just admired the way that Venice looked at night basically.

Then eventually after looking around for a while I found a small taverna

and got some bruschetta and just did some writing basically with my first impressions of the city.

I spent the last few hours just exploring Venice

and I mean I'd seen pictures i knew

that it was going to be beautiful it's just exceeded my

expectations it's even better than i thought it would be

and there's just

so much to see it's like every path you go down there's something new there's something different i also

bought this ginormous palette of strawberries anyway i'm gonna get into

bed it's 9 30 i didn't sleep very much last night

and i definitely want to be well rested for tomorrow

because i'm going to do a lot of the museums tomorrow

i'm planning on doing the basilica their bibliotheque tomorrow they're the two i'm most excited about

so i kind of want to get them done at the beginning

so that i've definitely seen them

and i don't accidentally not end up seeing them also a

quick um one thing you've probably realized by now is

that the main thing i buy is postcards i just buy

so many postcards i like sending them to people i really like letter writing

and i also always have like a mood boarder post cards up above my my desk

so i do use postcards so i've got these two to send people

and then this stationery show was wonderful

but i got this beautiful card this was only two pounds

it's some really nice manuscript paper they're like just tiny pieces

i've actually been looking for something like this for ages i love the idea of having one in your pocket

and then if you want to like leave a thank you note

or something you can use these okay good morning

so I'm just going to walk down to San Marcos now

and buy my museum pass and hope the lines aren't super long already because I think they probably will be

One of my favourite statues was this one, Daedalus and Icarus by Antonio Canova.

So if you're not familiar with the story of Icarus, Daedalus and his son Icarus created wings out of feathers

and attached them with wax but

when icarus flew he flew too close to the sun

and the wax melted which meant his feathers fell off we know this myth

and there's dramatic irony when we look at the statue

because we know what's going to happen to icarus

and yet frozen in the stone we see the anxiety the

care of daedalus as he desperately fixes the wax hoping that the feathers will stay in place

so this is la biblioteca Marchana and in 1603 they actually passed a law

which meant printing presses had to send a copy of anything

published to the library a little bit like what we have with the Bodleian in Oxford

This museum is amazing, it's so massive and it's snake -like.

This is the whole way around.

This is the final boat, which is the archaeological.

so doge palace is exquisite it's actually byzantine architecture and

so incredibly old and it was the heart of venetian government for centuries until the republic fell in 1797

it's an incredible space to walk around very inspiring i was

actually listening to italian opera music whilst i was walking around

which was very fitting and i would recommend that

if you do go so in doge palace you walk over the bridge of size

and lord byron wrote i stood in venice on the bridge of size a palace

and a prison on either hand that just perfectly captures this disjunct between the prison

and the palace like so you've then got the prisons

which is straight underneath and after the grandeur of seeing those rooms above it's so stark

so i got back to my room maybe 10 minutes ago

and i've just been decompressing a little bit let me say venice is amazing

so my plan today was to go first to the basilica

but ended up not buying a basilica ticket

but i went to dodge palace

and the museum cora i really enjoyed what i did see even

if it wasn't originally what i was planning on seeing

100

and i'm just going to see the basilica tomorrow morning instead um the line for the basilica gets

101

so long so quickly and

102

so i need to find a way to pre -book my ticket for

103

that Thank you i put on mascara

104

which was a rookie mistake it always runs i'm not usually

105

a big fan of cities like i'm definitely much more of a countryside person

106

but then this is such a small city

107

that it doesn't really feel it doesn't i mean that's a

108

lie it kind of it doesn't always have the bustle of the big

109

that big cities do um san marco square is so

110

so crowded so i mean i really love the architecture there

111

but it's it is a bit too crowded

112

and i do prefer the feel of the back streets oh actually i'm getting into this but

113

because i'm gonna go for dinner i think i might change

114

into my dress this is probably my favorite evening dress like

115

so many of my dresses it used to be my mom's a lot of the dresses

116

that she had when she was younger or my age i now have

117

which is really nice when my mom bought it she said it was

118

because it reminded her of pretty women like she called it a pretty woman dress i think it's

119

when she goes to the races she wears like a polka

120

dot dress like this i think i might wear it down

121

and then wear this big bow in it

122

and i'm also going to wear a red lipstick something about being in a european city

123

which isn't london i mean which

124

just makes me want to have a dark lip i might

125

read you an eyebrow my favorite thing actually ended up being the dorge palace this might sound silly

126

but i wasn't going to book to go there this is terrible for me to say um i understand

127

and realize my mistake now but i think

128

that it might be slightly overrated and so i wasn't gonna go

129

and my grandma was like no you have to go that's the best place

130

and she was so

131

so right the paintings in the dodge palace were just exceptional

132

just kind of how the space uses religious art in order to aid

133

and strengthen the authority of the council there was i can't

134

remember the name of the room i'll put it on the screen

135

but one of the rooms they had um this painting massive it covered the whole of one of the walls

136

and in the middle you have jesus and he's emitting this light

137

and it illuminates everything around him

138

and this light it genuinely just seems to glow like it's just paint

139

but it seems to glow

140

and it's beautiful let's go i think i'm gonna leave this camera here though

141

and just bring my gopro because it's one fewer thing to hold

142

and i probably won't film

143

when i'm actually having dinner i don't know You know why I'm actually nervous to go out for a meal by myself?

144

It's much quieter here.

145

This is what I came for.

146

i've got to say i think venice is even more beautiful at this time of day

147

mostly because it's a little bit quieter.

148

It's very very busy in this square.

149

I'm back in San Marcos Square just because I know my way from here.

150

I've got tiramisu around my mouth.

151

I didn't realize that.

152

So the restaurant was called La Tachia Begana and it was amazing that everything on the menu was vegan.

153

I would say if you're going to go, book ahead because I was really lucky to get a table it was only

154

because i got there just as they opened in my room now for the night

155

and i might just read um i think i will start

156

the man in the picture by season hill partially based in venice

157

which is why i bought it this trip on the third

158

day friday i started the day by writing at the hotel the reception space looks right out onto the canal

159

and it was the perfect quiet space to write in as

160

i said before i took this trip to focus on writing my novel

161

and this is basically what i was writing here i couldn't help

162

but actually bring venice into my book

163

and i actually really think it works originally one of my characters was going to go to rome

164

but i changed this in the end and rewrote this section

165

so she went to venice instead

166

and here is just a tiny tiny snippet of something

167

that i wrote she woke up early the first morning early enough

168

that the sun hadn't risen

169

and the lagoon was speckled only with the occasional water taxi

170

the san giorgio maggiore basilica carved out from the horizon like rossi's adam and eve.

171

venice was dreary and covered in a patina of rain

172

but i was worried i wouldn't see the basilica at all

173

if i didn't queue today

174

so queue i did for a good 45 minutes i made the terrible mistake of for getting my umbrella.

175

the basilica was good and obviously impressive the colors especially all of the gold

176

and red and green

177

which would have been especially vibrant in the ninth century where color was expensive

178

and rare outside of nature so like

179

so many people who visit venice la basilica san marco was the top thing i wanted to see

180

but i thought of everything it was probably the most overrated mostly

181

because it's just so crowded and feels quite formulaic

182

when you're going through because you look around almost in a line

183

because well when I went there were so many people and I prefer the other churches I happened across.

184

Anyway next I went to Aqua Alta bookshop again top on the list

185

and close to the hotel as well this has staircases made of books

186

and a gondola filled with them to protect them

187

when it floods it's so unique and definitely a bucket list spot ticked off.

188

i went to the basilica this morning

189

and then i did a little bit of shopping

190

and went to the main shops that i wanted to go to the floating bookshop

191

which is so cool and there's a gondola in the middle

192

which is filled with books they didn't have many english books

193

so i didn't give my books dad and mary

194

and jesus i just really like this that was only two euros

195

and then this one was one euro i haven't had a coffee today

196

so i think i might go out for a cafe

197

or a latte not all coffee shops though have like oat milk

198

or soy milk like last time i went to mainland europe i made a note myself to do this

199

but i've got this mini hip flask

200

and i've bought some oat milk i really don't like black coffee it's just too too intense for me

201

this second basilica was my favorite church I visited by the way I'd recommend you going

202

Thank you.

203

i'm really tired this is a running theme every time i

204

pick up the camera i feel like it's for me to say i'm incredibly tired i'm realizing

205

that venice is so great for like for independent craftsmanship

206

but specifically for stationery

207

but i did go to this place called il pavoni he's had his business for 35 years

208

and he creates beautiful uh notebooks beautiful stamps

209

and i bought an ex libris personal stamp for my friend

210

for her birthday i also went to screamer i did buy

211

this it's a wax seal spoon whilst i'm talking to you

212

as well i thought i would tell you a little bit about the sponsor of today's video

213

which is nordvpn which is such an essential when traveling

214

and i'm really glad to have nordvpn now

215

that i am abroad in italy nordvpn is an incredibly easy way to change your vpn address

216

and it's actually the fastest vpn server out there

217

so all i'm gonna do is click here switch to london

218

i just generally find it more convenient to be browsing on a uk web browser

219

because that's what i'm used to and

220

if i'm searching for something related to england as opposed to italy it shows me more relevant results

221

if you've been looking to try a vpn server then nordvpn

222

is a really great option as you can see it's

223

so easy to connect

224

and it offers thousands of different servers a vpn can keep your data more secure

225

and let you access content that is in your country

226

or just let you browse more smoothly if you're abroad

227

and it's a really useful thing to have if you are traveling

228

if you've been looking to try a way of changing your

229

vpn address then nordvpn offers a 30 -day money -back guarantee

230

which means that you do decide to sign up

231

and use my link nordvpn .com forward slash ruby then you

232

can get an additional four months free on the two -year plan

233

so thank you so much nordvpn for sponsoring today's video

234

because i am feeling very tired i'm going to read some more of the man in the picture

235

which i barely read today i didn't bring this out with me i bought my kindle

236

and on my kindle i'm reading the wonder by amadona hugh I often spent time looking at it though,

237

staring at the faces, the shadows, the buildings, the dark crippling waters of the Grand Canal, and I also vowed that one day I would go to Venice.

238

I had never been a great traveller as you know, I loved the English countryside too much and never wanted to venture far from it during vacations.

239

this is really good slow burner but already uncanny and spooky

240

i started the next day with a very expensive coffee at florian's this was a frequent spot of oscar wild

241

and i couldn't resist going and i've heard

242

that this is the oldest coffee shop in the world so it was something i really wanted to see

243

I'm just walking down to the Galleria Academia,

244

it's very awkward fucking public as of her and I went into the early bad bureau to buy some letter writing paper.

245

I actually love the letter writing paper here.

246

Excuse the fact I am in the toilet.

247

and hope no one comes by because i'll be very awkward someone came as i said that

248

i've temporarily left uh la galeria um because

249

i'm quite hungry i'm very thirsty and so um they kindly signed my ticket

250

and said that i could come back in an hour the lagoon is right here

251

so i might see if i can find something with a good view

252

you might be wondering what kind of thing i write in my commonplace book um

253

because i've got loads of clips of me just walking around the gallery writing things.

254

I just write observations and the names of my favourite paintings so I can look them up if I decide to later.

255

One of my favourite things in the gallery was Giovanni Bellini's Madonnas and how they're haunted by the eventual fate of Jesus,

256

this dissociative melancholy where the infant looks already near dead.

257

They're haunting paintings and some of my favourite Madonnas that I've come across.

258

but i've come back to my room just for a little bit

259

because when i left this morning it was quite cold

260

but it's now really warm and this top is knitted

261

so i'm gonna change into my dress just the same one i wore last night

262

and the night before um i'm going to a vivaldi concert tonight

263

which i'm so looking forward to it's in the church where the music was first performed and

264

so it's gonna be incredible to listen to the four seasons like in

265

that original space i'm a really big believer in fusing space and art.

266

I think art and space go hand in hand

267

so to experience this music in this space is just going to be amazing

268

and as soon as I saw it I booked tickets.

269

Okay I'm all ready and it's quite sunny so I have got my sunglasses.

270

It feels nice to actually use them.

271

I didn't pack very much with me and so I wanted to use them at least once.

272

I'm going to get to the end of the day, I'm going to get to the end of the day, I'm going to get to the end of the day, I'm going to get to the end of the day, I'm going to get to the end of the day, I'm going to get to the end of the day, I'm going to get to the end of the day, I'm going to get to the end of the day,

273

I'm going to get to the end of the day.

274

Venice Inn.

275

The day is beautiful of course

276

but I haven't actually been out in the evening to see that ether which has fallen over the city.

277

It's incredible.

278

But that concert,

279

it was just better more than i could have anticipated especially um the final section the winter

280

and the invierno the piccolo was playing these single staccato notes

281

and it was like the snow was melting

282

and like you could hear the sounds of winter you could hear the silence of winter

283

and then the strength of the storms and um generally just i've never heard Vivaldi liked that before.

284

I think because I only ever listened to him reading extracts like

285

I'll listen to a piece while studying and it'll be on in the background but that was different, remarkable.

286

I'm really just, I'm a little bit overwhelmed by it if I'm completely honest.

287

If you happen to find yourself in Venice then I'd recommend listening to it in the Vivaldi church um but just

288

if you had a chance to listen to it live at all from a live orchestra it was

289

so different to listening to it on spotify anyway i'm going to soak up the beauty of venice at night

290

when it was rainy the other day someone said this in

291

um uh florian's uh this morning said well actually venice in the rain is beautiful

292

because you get all the light on the water in the same way

293

that you get at night anyway yeah i'm gonna i'm gonna enjoy the way that venice looks right now Night advanced.

294

Time was crumbling.

295

Isn't that great?

296

Not a stain in the sun -brimmed sapphire cup that is the sky, not a ripple on the black translucent lane of the palace -walled lagoon,

297

not a cry as the gondoliers with velvet all glide by through the golden afternoon.

298

From this height, where the carved age -yellowed balcony o 'er to yonder liquid marble pavement see the light, shimmer soft beneath the bridge,

299

that abuts on a labyrinth of waterways and shuts half their sky off with its ridge.

300

that was very worth it i really enjoyed it honestly the architecture

301

and the decoration of those rooms is stunning i returned to cafe florian this time i got an orange tea

302

which was delicious instead of writing though i read i'd finished death in venice the day before

303

so i started reading the merchant of venice by william shakespeare instead

304

I saw this deep dish pizza place yesterday, and in the looked amazing so and yes i found the pizza

305

which was just as good as i'd hoped if not better

306

this was honestly such a good find

307

and very quiet too there were people at the bottom

308

but hardly anyone actually climbed the tower the palazzo contarini del bovolo

309

and there was a temporary modern art exhibit too uh which kind of confused me honestly

310

so the ticket was six euros and i definitely made full use of

311

that i stayed up there

312

and just wrote in the tower for honestly nearly an hour

313

i ended up writing a whole chapter of my book there was just something about the quietness

314

and the looming prospect of leaving venice that afternoon

315

which spurred me on

316

or inspired me i suppose i also wrote a journal entry whilst i was up here

317

which I wanted to share with you.

318

I'm at the top of the Palazzo Contarini and realised there's something beautiful about stone and how it holds you.

319

I can lean entirely into the pillars, easily fall and yet never do.

320

This tower has been here for hundreds of years and still, or maybe in spite of this, it has that strength and it won't let me fall.

321

My dad said the same in the climbing frame when I was three.

322

Don't worry Ruby, he said.

323

I won't let you fall.

324

There's something about someone saying your name even now by myself

325

in venice 100 feet up in the skies of a sinking city

326

so so worth it honestly just the level of inspiration

327

and um you can't put a price on the thoughts like

328

that like certain spaces inspire thoughts inspire thinking and this architecture

329

i was tired by this point and just wanted to read

330

and write so i headed back to the hotel and wrote in

331

that same spot as before overlooking the canal i know this is repetitive i just keep on writing

332

but i did book this as a writing trip

333

and i got from this trip what i really hoped i would

334

and what i was afraid i wouldn't get from it i'm not claiming

335

or saying that what i produced was any good and

336

that the writing is good but

337

that wasn't my goal the goal was to feel inspired

338

and to fall back in love with writing and that's what was more important to me the process the journey, not the destination.

339

At the moment they kindly said

340

that I could just wait here for a bit until I have to leave for my flight.

341

I'm gonna leave in about like half an hour to walk down to the Ali Laguna, I think that's the name of it.

342

It's like a water taxi that goes to the airport, but I'm starting writing some more.

343

I managed to get so much writing done, honestly.

344

I'm quite amazed that I managed to get as much done as I have.

345

So I've managed to write like part three, part four and part five and i'm going to try

346

and finish well i'm going to try

347

and finish part five before um the plane lands

348

but i'm not going to put pressure on myself

349

because i managed to write

350

so much more than i was hoping to do this trip anyway thank you

351

so much for watching this video i hope you enjoyed it

352

and if you ever get the chance to visit venice i would highly recommend you do they estimate

353

that the city might be gone in 20 years

354

because of rising sea levels and climate change

355

and then this is this perpetual reminder of how much we have got to lose

356

and how close we are to losing things.

357

It's this harrowing haunting thought of what's at stake I guess.

358

But thank you for watching, thank you to NordVPN for sponsoring today's video and I hope that you have more than just a productive week.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
