Ciao!
I cannot believe I have been in Italy for a week already. It has been a tough week in more ways than one. Today we finished our intensive Italian studies and my brain is so tired of comprehending Italian. I am catching on pretty quickly (thank you 3 years of Spanish) but its still difficult at times. On Monday we start our elective classes here at Umbra and I am so ready. I need a set schedule in my life right now..more than anything.
It has also been a tough transition to living in Italy. I was told this first few weeks would be difficult and those people were right! I have been experiencing so many emotions within this first week and my body is just ready for a 3 day weekend already.
But I know tomorrow will be a tough day for me. My dad is having a kidney transplant tomorrow and it is extremely difficult for me to not be home with my family right now. I know everything will be fine but my heart will be in PA tomorrow. If everyone could say a prayer tomorrow it will be greatly appreciated by all! I love you dad and just know I will be thinking about you tomorrow :)
And if you haven't already, please sign an organ donor card today!!
I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. As for me I will be walking around Perugia exploring and eating gelato! Many more pictures to come next week!
