Hey everyone! Thanks for all the comments - had no idea that this many people were reading this! That's awesome. Hope everything is good at home! I'm working on getting some pictures online but the internet is a little sketchy here (as in, you have to sit out on the sidewalk to get the internet), so hopefully soon. Perugia, the town I'm in, is really nice. The weather is cool, because it's in the hills. The view is fabulous, and our apartment is down a winding...

Whew. Finally, I can sit down and write something long. I am back in Athens now. I forget where I left off last time, but here is an update. Ios was awesome. We stayed for five nights. Our schedule went like this: Drag ourselves out of bed around noon, sit on the balcony because we are too lazy to leave because it was 110 degrees every day. Go to town, sit and eat and stare at people and make fun of them for two hours, because that is what Greek people do. ...

Wow, it's been a long time since I wrote the last one. Or at least it seems like it! Florence was really nice. Good shopping, good art. The Duomo was really cool. Our last couple of days in Rome were amazing too. We made friends with this hilarious guy from China who just kept talking about how he tore his ligament and how everyone was biased against him because he was Chinese. We met some cool Australian people too. Then Troy came to meet us and we went to Ven...

Okay, Vatican City was the best thing I have ever seen in my entire life. No question.So we went on the metro at 7am, and we witnessed a fistfight between a japanese tourist and an italian woman, which was great, and then we almost got trampled sprinting up the stairs to St. Peter's. Italian people are hilarious, by the way. They are somehow all gorgeous, in a hurry, lazy, condescending, rude, and ridiculously nice all at the same time. The tourists make up m...
