Hello From Italy

Last weekend I traveled to Italy with Darby (from my Morocco Program) to visit Jessica Millman and Susanna Kroll (friends from Babson).  Jessica and Susanna are currently studying in Perugia, Italy (where the girl died). Traveling to Perugia from Morocco took almost a whole day...after taking a car to the train station, the train to the Casablanca airport, a plane to Rome, a bus from the airport to the train station, a train to Perugia, and a taxi to Susanna's school we were exhausted!!!!!!! Susanna and her roommates kindly made Darby and I dinner our first night in Italy. The next day,Thursday, Jessica showed Darby and I around Perugia. For lunch, we went to Dal me Cocco which is a restaurant with a set menu...the food was delicious   Friday we traveled to Florence and walked around in the rain...stayed the night and the next day traveled to San Gimigano. San Gimigano is a small mid-evil town an hour and half outside of Florence. My battery died again....luckily I will receive another battery for my camera next week I travel to Spain.
I loved Italy...it was interesting listening my friends experiences in Italy. Our experiences are very different because they were able to be a lot more independent in Italy compared to my experience in Morocco. So it was very hard for me to come back to Morocco because I had so much more freedom in Italy. I feel way more relaxed in Italy compared to living in Morocco.

Anyways...here are some pictures from my experience:
