The End Is Near

Alright. I'm getting nostalgic. Everyday someone sadly states how many days we have left before we go back to the U.S. and I almost burst in to tears each time.

It's not as if I wont' be happy to go home. I have so many things to look forward to, and I can't even describe how much I miss my family. But I'm also not ready for this experience to be over.

I spent months preparing for this trip. From the weeks I spent on my application to buying the essentials (such as the travel toilet paper I bought at REI because someone told me that some hostels make you pay for toilet paper - which I've never run in to) to stressing over what to pack, it's unbelievable that now my thoughts are turned towards "the end."

We're all doing our best to soak up all of Verona that we can! Now that spring has sprung we're having picnics during the day, watch the sunset from the top of the hill at sunset and make homemade pasta together at night! The sunny weather has transformed the city, and we''re having more fun than ever now.

Enjoying an evening on top of the city!
