Assisi, Gubbio, and Citta di Castello etc

Ok this might be my shortest blog to date because I didn’t realize how little time I had. But quick over view
Last weekend- On Friday I went on a class fieldtrip to Assisi. It was really cool, and my teacher is unintentionally hilarious.

Dani, Alex and Me in Assisi!

The group with adrien- our teacher. 

Hey it's me in front of the Church of San Damiano.
We learned so much about this bad boy in class




Saturday I went with my friend Alex to this nearby town called Gubbio. It was really fun because we go to take this basket-like thing up a mountain. The scenery was AMAZING!

The basket we took to get up there. Not joking. 

On top of the mountain!!

Cool artistic shot of me with a tree




Sunday, we took our last foods fieldtrip of the semester to northern Umbra. It was too cold to go truffle hunting (huuuuuuuuge bummer L ), but we went to this medicinal herb museum, and we got to make our own cough syrup. We also got free cellulite cream (im not sure if they were trying to hint something…). We then got a HUGE GIGANTIC lunch at this amazingly beautiful place surrounded by mountains. And then we got to make gelato.  AwesomeJ

This past week has been just full of studying for midterms. Nothing too noteworthy.  I volunteer at the UNICEF center here. We are making dolls (that are then sold)- it feels like arts and crafts time. I forgot how completely unartistic I actually am. Out of all the dolls faces, they (politely) asked me to do mine again. And then another time after that. But other than that it’s going pretty well.

Alright, well once again I apologize for the lack of detail. Tomorrow is Spring Break week, and I am leaving for Vienna tomorrow! I will also visit Berlin and Krackow. I will have an extra long blog about that, I’m sure J

Ciao!!

P.S. So far so good with lent, though it’s only been one day….
