last 2 weeks= biggest whirlwind of my frickin' life.

To some it up:

*Halloween in Naples with flippin awesome dudes that had way cooler hair than me.

*Harvesting Olives in Umbria

*Week in Spannocchia, a organic self sustaining farm estate agritourism, hiking and playing with wild heritage Cinta Sinese piggies and piglets

*Roman Coma for 2 days

*Perugia for my smart little sugar muffin Serena's Master's degree in Linguistics Graduation (Laurea). She got a perfect score. 110. Auguri. Yeah, here you have to do a public exam about your thesis, which she took 250 pages to write. Congrats. She is a linguistic Buddha.

*Discovering Rome. Outside the tourist zones. San Lorenzo. Love it. love...IT.

*Went to a nudist meditation agritourism farm retreat in Tuscany that I may be a WWOOFing at after this program ends. While there, stumbled on a quant little village town while on a hike with other WWOOF'ers (who btw were flippin wicked, one been WWOOF'ing from New Zealand to Japan to Czech to now Italy and the other just WWOOFing in Italy to gather research for an Italian "taco" truck he wants to open in the states). In the village town, in a small speck of Tuscany, we taste AMAZING wines from a cantina/cellar who happens to export to Seattle. Nice.

*My friend Elvi came to visit and discovering yet ANOTHER side of Rome. Circolo degli Artisti. Capital Hill in Rome. ahhhhhhh
