If you wonder where Venetians bury their dead, head to San Michele cemetery, an island exclusively dedicated to graves and tombstones, and a beautiful, graceful place to visit or be buried.
Among the few visitors to the cemetery, I noted an older man, walking slowly among the graves with his cane. Like me, he seemed to follow no particular plan, and somehow inevitably, we finally ran into each other and talked. He turned out to be much older than I had thought, was visiting his deceased relatives and friends, and was expecting to be buried here himself in the coming years, even though he was very bright and appeared very healthy. A friendly encounter with a friendly man, who gave me the secret of his longevity: no smoking and no drinking. Well, I can only hope to become as old as was in the same healthy conditions.
