Flag of Monaco Monaco, Monaco
Saturday, September 24, 2011

Monaco by night was something to behold. Built into the hillside, a twisty maze of winding streets perhaps most famous for the F1 race. I got a big kick out of driving the car through the same famous turns and underpasses I see on the TV every year. At around 15mph.

The one thing that really stuck me was the amount of filthy, filthy, stinking rich there were. It was obscene. Million euro yachts and luxury cars pepper the landscape, and you can smell the money everywhere you go. I loathed it. It definitely isn't my kind of place. Especially when you think of people who have nothing. Shops on the high street are sports car stores instead of Woolworth's. I felt totally removed from this lifestyle and very out of place.
