Ciao tutti. Mi dispiace per essere pigro.
Believe it or not I have not vanished into the wild hills of Italy and lost forever. I am still nestled comfortably in Perugia. I started my last blog by saying, 'I can't believe its March' , well I can't believe its May. haha. Honestly, did not realize that I have not blogged for two months. My parents on the other hand seemed to make it their number one priority to remind me that I should keep on my blogging. So the blame is totally on me, not them. They tried, but their grasp of control seems to be loosening over the distance between us. Regardless! Ecco mi.
If you haven't heard in the past two months my family visited me over Nick's spring break in March. I met them in Rome where I acted as the tour guide and map holder while they enjoyed their first days in Italy with wide eyes and jaws dropped. To be honest was a wierd experience seeing them but instantly felt like I was just on another vacation. It was a great time. I hear Nick has been waiting to see his name in a blog so I dedicate this sentence to you Nick, haha. They came to visit me in Perugia for a couple days after going down to Pompei and Napoli. They got to see the chill lifestyle Perugia lives. Spent a day driving through Toscana (although the drive almost killed us all) roads can be a little twisty turny in that part of the country. A very beautiful part of the country though. They finished out their jounrey through Italy in Firenze which was full of museums, mounuments, soccer game, and gellato.
April came and so did a new level of Italian classes. I am not enrolled in B1 level courses. I was very hesitant to move up to B1, but decided it would be better to be in the bottom part of the class and force myself to learn than be in the top part and go over stuff I already know in A2. So far the classes have been great, I really enjoy my instructors and meeting new people. Has been just a great experience so far, not only because of being complete out of control and humbling yourself to learn this laungage but just being around so many different cultures and being so engulfed by the Italian culture has truely been a time in my life I will never forget!
Again, I apologize for being lazy over the past two months. I appreciate all those of you who still reguarly check to see, I am sure I have disapointed you with my absence. All is well! All is great! Italy is wonderful and breathtaking, every inch of it, every part of it. I am greatly looking forward to my final two months here!
I wish you all the best wherever you are.
Remember that life is about love; love everything, love everyone, and love will find you.
yours forever,
Michael DiMarco
