I visited France and Italy 4 years ago and Italy (Rome) blew me away in that art is life and life is art.

Carissimi Italiani, siamo tutti con voi. Ho vissuto 9 anni in Italia e sono stato in misura di castatare che siete un popolo forte, corragioso e generoso. Questa video ce lo prova una volta di più. Dio vi protegga e vi benedica tutti quanti. Un forte abbraccio dal Canada (Québec).

This has extended to Paris where at least in my neighborhood at 20:00 people open their windows and clap and play music. It's a sign of solidarity with the people in Italy as well as the sounds of hope an life.
