Florence, Italy

I’ve been in Italy for 2 weeks now! It’s seriously the best time I’ve ever had. Besides my sleeping pattern still not being quite right, I feel totally at home in my tiny apartment in the city. The city itself is absolutely beautiful with bridges and old buildings everywhere. It’s filled with tourists which seems like it would be annoying, but its actually fun because you get to meet people from all over the world.

My parents were in Paris last week so they decided to make a trip to see me for my birthday. We went to a few museums and I got to eat a very nice meal for free =). It was nice having them here because I got to show them around and I looked really cool.

So far we have made trips to Cinque Terre, Pisa, and some other beach. Cinque Terre is five fisherman cities and it’s gorgeous. You can hike from town to town and the last town is a beach. The hike was about two hours long but it was well worth it. Pisa was fun too; I got to see the Leaning Tower of Pisa, but that’s pretty much all there is to do there.
