There’s a lot to report since last we spoke. Genoa is
everything I could have possibly imagined and more! It is absolutely stunning
and I definitely feel like a wide-eyed tourist, especially considering the fact
that all my Italian flies out the window as soon as I get put on the spot.
Speaking Italian to Italians has been interesting. I know I’m an American and I
know they know I’m an American and everything is so fast! I will say, though, even in the week and a half that I have been here I have seen a lot of improvement in the comprehension of what people are saying. Which, you know, is sort of the reason why I decided to come here.
