I have gotten so bad at posting! I have just been so busy! I don't even know where to start! My fantasitc adventure gets better and better everyday.  I am  still not very good at the language, but I can understand more and more everyday. Sometimes I even try to speak, ma l'italano e' molto dificile.

I cannot begin to say how thankful I am for this experience.  I have said it before and I will say it again: this has been the best decision that I have ever made.  Being here has taught me so much and introduced me to some of the greatest people! (I am getting a little mushy, I will save the rest of that for my last post).

I have some pictures here from the last few weeks, they are not nearly all of them but they are just an idea of what I have been up to. This one is of me and one of the cousins (I say one of them because there are so many!) Fulvio.  Our birthdays are very close together and he won't be here for either of them, so we had a birthday night.  This is us "blowing out our candle".

This is me and my Italian cousin Riccardo at the beach and in the convertible on the way to the beach. 

Me and my italian cousin Roberto!

Me at the beach! It is so beautiful!! I could live on the beach.

Fulvio, me and Roberto eating pizza for Roberto's uncles birthday!

I love these girls!! Me and Luisa and Mariapia at a restaurant in Sorento, one of the towns around Naples.

Me and Mariateresa after having pizza.  The background was so beautiful, but it was too dark!

Me in front of a church in Pompei.

I have been to so many birthday parties this past month, have had so many pizzas, ice creams, coffees, trips to the sea. I could describe each one of them in great detail and length, but that would take forever, so what I will say is that the people are wonderful, the pizza is fantastic, the ice cream is phenomenal, the coffee is terrific, and the sea is memorizing.  I am in love with this country.

I miss my family and friends terribly. So here is the deal y'all just come here and live in Italy. See you when you get here!!

ciao ciao, Lindz
