Happy
Halloween! I apologize for the break in posts; two months in and homesickness
finally hit me. I became a grumpy cynic and I didn’t want that attitude to
pervade my stories.
Yesterday, in
an attempt to air out my head of sulkiness, I went for a walk to the
neighbouring city of Legnano. I decided to ponder the future, because that
usually gets me excited and out of a slump. I asked myself questions like: What
will I do after graduation? Where will I live? What kind of jobs will I apply
for? Truthfully, I know they’re probably more exciting to think about than to
put into action. Nevertheless, I think my
questions did the trick.
Now, I do
have a bunch of notes from past trips, but I think it’s better to preserve my sanity and start afresh. Here are some pictures and very brief descriptions of the cities I've seen:
Monreale, Italy -- Afternoon side trip; meh.
Dublin, Ireland -- Cold and not much to see. Go for the nightlife.
Nice, France -- Stunning! Splurged on the meal.
Vatican City -- "Shh! Everyone crowd in this poorly lit building. No talking or taking pictures." Ugh.
Rome, Italy -- Lots to see. Smells like urine...
Venice, Italy -- Defines charm & beauty. Only visit with a significant other.
