I will have a space available in Venice, Italy, and I am considering giving it to someone willing to open a Jazz Kissa here.

Curious to hear if people from HN would consider this a good idea or not.

It's about the last thing I'd expect to see in Venice so I think it's a pretty good idea.

Venice seemed to me a place that looks more like a massive historical theme park, while still authentic and very much in the right place, it did not strike me as normal that tourists would just find someone going about their day as an Instagram opportunity ("look that Venician is buying bread, how authentic! Let's crowd his house and take pictures!"). It didn't seem to me like a place where one is supposed to live, just supposed to go and see. A historical zoo would be a more outrageous way to put it. What can I say, I was probably part of the problem.

So I think it's a good thing any idea that makes these touristy places look like cities where people actually live, people with different interests other than what you'd expect. Just not sure if it's a profitable idea (are Italians very into Jazz?).

Sounds like a great idea to me.
