Milano I love you, Milano I Hate You
By Giacomo Rescia• January 7, 2025
This is a small text I wrote on the way back from the centre of Milan to my home in the southern suburbs of Milan, Rozzano. From the Duomo and the University, which is the beating heart of the city, those who are from Rozzano to go to the city take the tram 15 which is the historic and identity tram of the neighbourhood. I think the creativity with which we share a message or a text has no limits. However, it is a text I particularly care about written as I watched all the people getting on and off the streetcar. People who were slowly changing, their appearance, their voices, their nationalities...
I think it is a text that reflects the way I see the city and the romanticism I feel when it comes to this topic, to which I link music, cinema and human relationships and infrastructure. I tried to tell what I feel and the people I was seeing in some way by empathizing with them.

Ciao! My name is Giacomo and I am a student of Local Development at Padova University. My main academic interest is related to Urban Development and Urban Studies. I think one of our future goals should be rethinking our way to live the city starting from little changes, from the sustainable ones to the city making projects! As you can see from the picture I love staying out and chilling, enjoying every possibilities that a city offers, and sometimes I love drinking spritz! I’ve played basketball since I was five and I like listening to some good hip hop music, indeed my two GOATS are LeBron James and Kendrick Lamar!! Bisousss
