Recent Life in Rome



I have been rather horrid at updating this as of late, so this is going to be a rather all emcompassing entry. Some highlights of the past couple weeks have included catching the last 15 mins of an AS Roma vs AC Milan game. I may have pre-gamed a little too hard and getting to the stadium turned into a treck that could only be beaten by the epic adventure hope. I was a modern day Oddesys, wrought with distractions and challenges. It took me three hours to get home rather than ten years, but still- it was a journey.

In one of my classes we also went to a place where cheese is made. It is part of an agrotourism network. They have 700 sheep, we still have not found out who is the shepard though. I was able to touch some goats- which after being so animal deprieved for two months made me week. I churnched some fresh cheese and even got to try some of the made product. It was unofficial at home and some people here decided to celebrate which made the day all the more interesting for those of us who were sober.

Layers of Rome has continued to be interesting and my favorite class. This past week I was lucky enough to spend a two days with Paul. One in the church of St Peter in Moritorio- which is quite prominent in Angels and Demons and in the Chiesa Nuova while a mass was going on. He is so interesting and I may be in love with him..mildy haha

I am really excited for my upcoming trips and am really enjoying the wonderful weather in Rome.
