Europe: Sorrento

First of all, another gorgeous place on this whirlwind adventure. Of course. Even Santa Barbara cannot compete. Sorrento was a nice break and a relaxing stay. We bummed around and ate (a lot) of food. It was some good living let me tell you. Mt. Versuvius on the skyline and daytrips to Capri and Pompeii only made this quaint, relaxing stay even better. My recommendation? GO if you have the chance. It's gorgeous and the "light operetta" is a good show. Close to many places with easy access it's a must stop by. 

gnocchi. or however you spell it. delicious naturally.

light operetta. don't even have to speak Italian to enjoy.

Typical.

Bad news guys. I took the wrong camera connector cable to college. Typical. Basically what this means for y'all is that I can't share the photos on my camera with you. However, I will take one low quality one with my webcam... sorry for the quality but this is my abode of late.

Rather plain I know. The desk area is actually decorated which I know you can't see well but you'll have to trust me I guess. More decorations to come. Mainly I do have a large box coming tomorrow that contains some nice touches I could put out. Better pictures to come when I find my cable!

Crazy, Crazy

Wow, crazy times so far for college life! Well, everything is just so busy actually, and it's kind of weird to think I'll actually be living here for the next 4 years or so. So pictures coming soon of my dorm room and whereabouts Boston area, time allowing. School comes first right?

Leaving Again

Is it weird to just wake up and realize, "Hey. I'm leaving again tomorrow for another 3 months." Even though the week has been filled with goodbyes, it's weird to just stop and take a look around and see how empty my room is now. So here's to new times and saying farewell to Santa Barbara, may my last day be productive.

Europe: Florence

Florence was so gorgeous and a very welcomed HOT from our previous foggy, foggy days! City of art and mind blowing architecture this definitely is at the top of the list of places I would like to see again. We spent a few days here which was also a welcomed rest from our fast pace city - hopping. 

Children advert your eyes, it's The David. Well, a copy really. Notice how out of proportion the head and hands are?

Famous Duomo. THE original dome. Gorgeous. St. Peter's Basilica? Yeah, modeled after this.

City of Firenze!

Europe: Lake Como

Lake Como & The Bellagio. But like, the REAL Bellagio. Just a small stay on our way down to the south of Italy, but so incredibly gorgeous! It was like a vacation on vacation. Though there wasn't much touristy stuff, minus the Bellagio, to do, my friends and I enjoyed strolling through the town and running away from local boys (probably in a gang?) who were chasing us, because we just make friends everywhere apparently. But the food was fantastic, of course! And the stay was refreshing from our marathon days in Paris.

Houses and Shops of the Bellagio

Packing?

Finally starting on the packing for college.... and it's wow. Umm, can't I just take ALL of my boots and coats please? Another Europe post coming soon in this rapidly increasingly busy schedule of mine!
