Saturday, Oct. 12th - I woke up on my flight about 40 minutes before landing in Milan and got an amazing view of the Swiss Alps. Reality has it...I'm here! After a 90 minute venture to our new apartment, we set out in search of food and let me just say...my first Italian meal did not disappoint. I ordered spaghetti con pollo which came out looking sort of like chicken lo mein but was SO good. Definitely going to have to run daily so I don't blow up.
Sunday, Oct. 13th - Today my roommate Erica and I decided to venture out. We took the metro 3 stops away to the Duomo di Milano. The Duomo is an amazing Cathedral which has been around since the 1300s. The area around the Duomo is full of shops and restaurants which we definitely took full advantage of. My favorite aspect of the day was walking around and people watching. Milan is such a trendy, eclectic and diverse city. I feel like I should have made a more concerted effort to finish my Rosetta Stone before leaving home as I struggle to understand basic communication. Going to try to work on that while here. With that said...lo vado a letto. La mia prima classe e domani. Buonanotte!
