Okay I realized I left an important detail out of my last post, aka scariest moment in Verona so far. So I am walking on Via Mazzini (aka Michigan Ave of Verona) they have all these people in costumes and makeup to advertise for operas and plays but sometimes also art. I am walking past one of these, trying to figure out whether it was a person or a statue (face completely white looks ridiculous) he jumps out at me making kissing noises. I jump and scream. Everyone around starts laughing at me. I can't speak Italian so I can't explain myself and must keep walking. Moral of the story, if you think they are real, they probably are and they may try to kiss you.
update on Soave etc. coming soon!
Leah! I just discovered your blog and am so excited to read about all of your adventures in Verona! I was in the same program as you in Summer 2008 (the whole reason I started my own blog)and it was the most fun I ever had in college. I hope Claudio is behaving himself for you all haha. Where's your apartment and what classes are you taking?? Ciao ciao, bella!
