What a day! Today we had a sleep in and then left to explore Turin! Turin is so beautiful and I absolutely love it!! We visited lots of gorgeous piazzas and shops (yes I went shopping yayy!) and saw little Christmas markets that had 'snow' on the roof of the stalls, also in the central piazza there was a gigantic advent calendar (but it didn't have gigantic chocolates in it, i was very disappointed). We also visited a church that holds the sheet that Jesus was wr...

After school today Michela and I went on a road-trip (Sara didn't come because she has exams she needs to study for) to Turin! We arrived late as tomorrow there is no school (but I am not going to school Friday or Saturday either) so everyone is wanting to go away, we got to the restaurant at about 9:30 and then had to wait as it was completely full (there was a soccer game on) so we ended up sharing a table for a little bit but then got our own. We both had pizz...

The view was incredible!! It was similar to the view of Bergamo but it was a little different. Some of the other exchange students and I wrote out names on the rock...

Again today, what a day!!! We woke up at 7 and had a small breakfast of chocolate croissants, coffee and toast. Afterwards we walked to the train station and caught a train to Pisa!!!! We walked around the city for a bit and then WE ARRIVED TO THE LEANING TOWER OF PISA!!! It is soooo bent! We stayed there for a little while and we got an explanation about the leaning tower and the buildings surrounding it, it turns out the leaning tower isn't the most important a...
