Italia
Tonight we met each other. I am rooming with a girl named Anna from Golden, Colorado (and originally from Columbia). Our apartment mates are Mac and Felicity, two super down to earth, awesome girls. Our apartment is super cute! We have a little patio thing, hard wood floors, a retro looking yellow fridge, etc. The streets are really narrow here and people drive crazy and will hit you if you don't move. Almost everyone speaks English, so a language barrier shouldn't be an issue. Tonight we went to the D'uomo (cathedral) which was incredibly beautiful and then got dinner at this cute little restaurant. I got pistachio gnocchi, so yum. I couldn't finish it though, I got to full and they don't do left-overs here so that was a bummer. I just showered and we are figuring out stuff for tomorrow and all the things we need to do/buy. So far, I have only forgotten pajamas and well that's easy cause I have t-shirts and sport shorts. I don't re-read these nor do I often edit, so I apologize for that. More to come!
