ciao ciao
yup. and there´s the extent of my italian vocabulary. smile and nod, smile and nod....
italy is a land of lovely things. gelato, pasta, hot chocolate as thick as pudding, pink hills with castles on them, tiny cobblestone streets, fields of aromatic herbs, enough cats to cuddle until the end of time and, of course, the wonderful federico as my personal guide to it all.
it´s difficult to drop into another culture and another person´s life but it´s made easier by federico, his family and his friends all being very welcoming to me. i´m doing ok so far, learning what life can be like for me here, trying to keep the right perspective and to not get overwhelmed.
oooo! and the orange trees! beautiful beautiful orange trees lining the streets and decorating the fields. we have one in the yard and i eat from it everyday. wow.

woohoo, the pudding beverage! I liked the hazelnut quite a bit, but everything gets less pleasant as it cools. Have you noticed that Italian winter tomatoes kick serious butt compared to Canadian winter tomatoes? They're still so tasty! What's wrong with our tomatoes?
