first night

We were fed an awesome dinner at the hotel's restaurant. Afterwards some new friends and i enjoyed a bottle of wine standing in an empty rooftop pool. Why you ask? Why not! Who can say they have done that!

landed!

my disclaimer for this message is that i have been awake for more hours than i care to admit. i have landed in roma and since bused to Perugia. my school is housing us in a hotel for the evening. A few things i realized from my trip thus far:

1. there is no comfortable way to sleep in a plane.
2. i had no idea italy had so many sunflower farms
3. i need to sleep.

Now... I tackle my next foe, the BIDET!

Random Thought #1 ( There will be many of these throughout the trip)

I'm sitting in the San Fran airport working on this blog, it's 8:18am, I've been up for three hours, so now I'm looking at shoes. I'm looking at shoes and I notice something. Those jesus sandals... you know, the ones with all the straps. Those are just so ugly. But oh how I want them to be fashionable. Think about it, all the stability of shoes yet with the breath-ability of sandals. Now you're thinking to yourself, Anthony, how can you dictate what you wear based on fashion, if you want them just wear them! Ya well, that's just dumb. That's how the world works. In my opinion, many men find those weird high waisted shorts girls are wearing as not so attractive any yet girls are wearing them because they are in fashion! Also, what about Crocs! same thing right! No, Your wrong.

First Post!

Hello all! Thank you for following my blog. I plan to be concise but you know me, I like to talk. I also plan to post as much as I can but I fear that as the months go on I will begin to forget or be so lazy that I chose not to post. In the case of the latter, start bugging me to post something! I know a lot of you do not get the chance to have such a great experience so I would like to post enough that you feel you were right here next to me on all my trips!

That being said, in the words of Mario, HERE WE GOOOOO
