insanity!!!

where to even begin! well first off, I am in Florence!!! In Rome, I met this group of people and we all just bonded immediately. A French Canadian guy, a skouser from Liverpool, a cute little couple from western Canada and another guy from Ontario! We spent the entire week in Rome partying every night and exploring the sites every day. We just get on so well, its perfect. One Canadian left 2 days ago to see his g-f in Scotland, but the rest of us decided to head to Florence together, so here we are! We have made friends along the way and keep having an amazing time. The weather is perfect. Sunny and clear. Warm during the day, cold at night.

Food isnt so great here, so we went out for Chinese food tonight...hahaha and it was amazing. Felt like home! We keep getting stuck in these crazy adventures. We were out of a room on Friday night here in Florence, but at like 11 at night we found a place 20 min outside of town run by an old crazy Italian grandma. They only had one room so the 4 of us slept in this big bed all cuddled up haahh. It was interesintg, but histerical. These people have become verrrry good friends. We even plan to do a roadtrip together next summer!

I am loving this vacation! The past week or so has just been so mcuh fun. Meeting new people, experiencing new things. Learning, chatting...getting help from strangers. I cant believe its almost half over already. Time flies! from here I might go to athens with the couple, or to Pisa with this new guy we met here in Florence, or possibly Barcelona to just soak up the sun and fun! Who knows...but that is the beauty of it!

OOOH!! I have chicken pox!! Haha. One guy got it, gave it to me and his girlfriend. I have nooo idea how. I guess just from being around each other all week, sharing drinks or something. Its not that bad though, we are all a bit sick and it itches a lot..but its a different strand than what we all had when we were kids so its ok. Its really funny though. I have soooo many funny weird stories from this trip. I want to write more on here, but time is running out. Ill write more soon. Ive been keeping a journal every day of what Im doing, so as soon as I can ill update more.

I love you all at home and miss you very mcuh. Still think of my friends and family constantly. You are my rocks. Hi jojoba.
