A fresh, crisp breeze wanders its way through the descending droplets of rain to my balcony that overlooks Milan’s uber-fashionable district of Quadrilatero della Moda. As a resident of the desert, the inclement weather is rather refreshing as I take in the views of the surrounding neoclassical buildings that are being pelted by this latest downpour.
