It started raining! Here is our dryer! |
2. There is no air conditioning here.
2b. There are no fans.
3. There are about 500000 restaurants that serve the exact same thing within one block of each other and all seem to stay in business.
4. They live on top of each other. Something my my dad would love.
5. They eat a ton of carbs. Like a ton. But all seem to stay in shape?
6. They exercise in nice clothing. (ex. kakis and a polo) Its weird, I know.
7. They do not have dryers.
8. You have to pay to use most restrooms.
9. The list goes on..
Time here is very weird for me. It feels like we have been here for so much longer than a week but this week seemed to fly by. Its going fast and slow at the same time; its a strange feeling. Sometimes I feel like I will never catch on to this language then other times, I really feel like I am understanding a lot. The whole culture is so much different than mine. It has taken some getting used to, but I am starting to appreciate it for its differences and also starting appreciate my culture more than I ever have before.
On the left is "Fake David" You cannot take pictures of the real one. |
We have seen so many beautiful things since we arrived in Rome one week ago; some that I never imagined I would see. I wonder if the Italian residents realize how beautiful their country really is or if it is just a place they live? They have some of the worlds most renown museums, and so much history surrounding them; a few days ago we saw the David! He is an enormous statue with such incredible detail!

The castle walls |
Tomorrow we will begin another week and I look forward to the next adventure!
