My Life in Italia!


Oh my gosh.
Where to begin?
I guess I'll just start with the fact that I LOVE it here!!! It's amazing and different and beautiful.
But I'm getting ahead of myself.
Basically I'm living in the downtown center of Pisa, in the middle of the ancient part of the city. The old walls from the middle ages still surround this part but Pisa is bigger now so the rest of it goes beyond the old walls now.
But that's boring.
Let me get to the fun stuff.
First of all, THE FOOD.
Omg. It's amazing. All. The. Time.
I had my first gelatto (ice cream) today and it was soooo delicious!
It's a lot softer than American ice cream so I thought it was going to be gross and melty but it wasn't! It's absolutely amazing and really flavorful.
And the fact that I ate it while walking down the narrow streets of Italy and looking at the river made it even better.
Next, THE PLACES.
I went to the Leaning Tower last week and it was really cool. It's only about a 5 min walk from Bianca's house to the Tower and the other famous buildings over there. The place is jam-packed with tourists all the time (even if it's pouring rain) but it's fun to sit on the grass and have a little picnic or even people watch at the place where most people take pictures. (The Asians are the best hahaha they always do weird things in their pictures! lol)
Anyway, I will write more later because I have to go but I love you all! I miss our times in 208. The family I'm with is probably tired of hearing about you guys because I talk about you all the time! Haha but I don't care.
Anyway loveslovesloves and ciao!
