Venezia and More

24 September 2010
My friend Feather has been here for a week now and we have had a good time and it was the respite that I needed after the first grueling 3 weeks here of chaos. Never knew how much a friendly face and warm heart would serve me. While she has been here, we both were dazzled by Venezia and underwhelmed by Atlantic City's dopple-ganger Rimini and laughed til we couldn't stop because of a lost in translation...

Reinforcements

19 September 2010
My friend Feather has arrived in Bologna. Yay! so I am away for a minute from the blog to see the sights with the friend who I once made a vow with to meet in Europe about four years ago. Then, we were just planning a trip together but it seems that fate would have us meet here as she takes a 6 month sabbatical from the States and I have moved here for the next two years ;-).At the moment, we are...

caos!

05 September 2010
I have been in Italy now for almost two weeks and let's say all the preparation I went through was futile. Nothing has been in order and none of the information I was given was accurate which I am finding is how they do things around here in il bel paese. Oh did I mention no one will help you either?I have spent a day walking in circles for 45 minutes looking for my appointment, standing in the street...
