I was really sad to leave Naples. Despite the traffic and heat and everything else, it was a really fun city. But Rome is nice too ( Read more... )

I am overjoyed that I have free unlimited internet and can sign on AIM express at the hostel I am staying at. This will put me in a good mood for the next couple of days. And I will probably stay up much of the night tonight talking, and just sleep on the train tomorrow. It feels so good to talk to people again. I was going to post my travel ( Read more... )

It has been a rollercoaster lately, but things are going really well now ( Read more... )

I spent Saturday in Berlin with my Dad, andit was great. We never get to hang out much, so that in itself was fun, but to make it even cooler we were wanderng around Berlin, looking at all sorts of cool things. We saw the cathedral, Bradenburger Tor, and several other internationally recognized historical things. I will put up pictures of all of ( Read more... )

So Germany rocks my world. I have to admit, it was a little shaky (and really scary) at first, since almost no one here speaks English and my German is, well, lacking. But I’m getting better, and I feel like I know my way around town better, and my German is improving rapidly ( Read more... )
