Ciao Tutti! Sooo, I havent posted on my blog in awhile! I apologize, I have been so busy with classes, getting accustomed to living in Italia, and of course exploring the beautiful city of Florence! The past two weeks have FLOWN by. I can't believe it is already February, midterm exams are less than a month away, and spring break is only a month away! Today, I booked my trip to Amsterdam with my friend Owen for March 8-11 for spring break, its going to be amazing!!!! I cant wait to see how out of control that city is! haha.
Overall, I am definitely falling in love with Firenze. Everyday gets easier, and everyday I pick up a little more Italian. I am DJing at our favorite bar, Joshua Tree Pub, on Monday night-- under the name DJ J-Woww.. hahah. I figured, why not? Free drinks for the DJ, and the ability to play whatever music I want? Definitely. Next Saturday (Feb. 13) we are going to Venice for Carnevale.. its a crazyyy party in Venice, where everyone wears masks, kind of like halloween. Kim and I picked out masks today to wear for Carnevale.. mine is pink and white (of course) with sparkles and a diamond on the top! I can't wait to see the canal roads and hopefully ride in a gondola!
The pictures I have posted in this post are from Chianti (WINE COUNTRY!!!). We visited there last weekend, and got a tour of a castle where wine and olive oil are made.. and a homemade lunch and wine tasting! It was amazing... the view of the mountain sides was BREATHTAKING, i must say. It is SO different that anything I have ever seen in the States. Enjoy the pics!
SO basically, I have so much planned for the next month or so, I know it is going to fly by. I am making the best out of every single day I have here (even though its been really rainy lately) and I cant wait for the warm weather to come!
I will definitely be posting more frequently, now that I am fully settled in and the homesickness has disappeared.
Ciao Tutti <3
Con Amore,
