Off to Paris!

Ok, so I have a list of about six different blog posts that I plan on getting up, but it will have to wait, because tomorrow morning I leave for Paris for the weekend!!!!!  I am so incredibly excited! I am going with the school, which is super awesome. We have a group of 63 students, so much more manageable than the 195 we traveled with on Opening Tour.

I plan to take lots of pictures, and to post about it upon my return.

In the week and a half since my last blog post, I have:
  • Met up with family I haven't seen since I was really little
  • Learned how to make a three course italian dinner
  • Watched two episodes of Glee with a group of students
  • Led a field trip to Media World (the best buy equivalent) and the Coop (massive grocery store)
  • Taken another Italian quiz
  • Bought and built an Ikea dresser
  • Taught people how to play euchre :)
  • And had some fabulous meals out around Florence!
I'm absolutely loving living over here, even though there are things that I miss or am finding difficult. But it's such a cool experience, and the students and people I work with are great.

In the meantime, here's some topics that I am planning on writing about, maybe if I say it on here, it will make me follow through?!?
  • Italian Class
  • Mosquitoes 
  • Life in Florence vs. Life in the States (my observations)
  • Things I miss from the states
  • Suggestions? If there's anything you want to know, or hear about, put it in a comment :)
