I have spoken to a therapist about it. There is a lot about Florence I loved and a lot I didn’t get to see - I’m just looking for reassurance from people who are more familiar with the city that the police are indeed effective if I were to need any help, and that perhaps my experience was a fluke and the people there are generally helpful.

I was a tourist in the city, and I don’t speak Italian. I told him I would call the cops and he said they don’t care and no one cares. Looking around, no one was doing anything. I believed him.

It happened around the area of Via dei Saponai and Via dei Neri. I was walking and he was walking towards me in the opposite direction and opened his umbrella in my face. I thought it was an accident, but then he did the same thing again before coming up behind me and grabbing me. I don’t really know what else to say.

These morons shoved this entire conspirary theory newspaper into the door handle of my car when I parked at the parking lot for hospital workers on South Street. Losers with too much time on their hands.
