Firstly, I'd like to apologize for not updating the blog until now. I can assure you it's been a hell of a month. (Since we last spoke, I've been in Tuscany, Rome, Pisa, London, Baltimore, Miami, Naples (Florida), Del Ray Beach, and finally, back to Baltimore) Secondly, I'd like to thank everyone who's kept up with me during my time abroad. I've really been amazed at the spread of people that read this page. It's been an enormous pleasure keeping you all updated with my life, and more than anything else I do it to maintain the connections that matter to me most. I find that there are more people that I'd like to stay in contact with than i could possibly write to on a daily basis, and so I hope you'll take this outlet as my way of telling my side of the story. As more time passes however, I'd really like to know what YOU all are doing. How YOU all have been, and with any luck, when we can finally get together again.
Anywho, without further adue, here's the short version of what my last month has encompased:
Since we've last spoken, my friend Ali and I were joined by my best friend Frank in Tuscany. Frank LOVES to cook so it wasn't long before he was up to speed and helping us whip up prep for lessons, lunch, and dinner for the now FULL classes. We ran through the normal schedule for a few days, and that thursday (June 19th) Frank, Ali, and I rented a car and took off for an old college friend (and frathernity brother) Simone's wedding in Rome. I must say, it was very generous of Simone and his new bride Maite to invite the three of us since it was indeed a "destination wedding" and (as i've learned) they can be QUITE expensive to organize and orchestrate. Anywho, it was great seein so many old faces and it was really amazing to get to connect with them again so far from home.
