I have officially landed in Roma! I got really lucky on my flight with an empty seat next to me & was actually able to get some sleep. Rome is absolutely gorgeous! I am living in a neighborhood called Testaccio which is about 20 minutes (by tram and bus) away from my university. The school itself is incredible... It's located on the Gianicolo (the second tallest hill in Rome) so it overlooks the entire city and is covered in palm trees and flowers. My apartment is a lot bigger than I expected, even if the beds are teeny tiny. We have 4 girls living here so far (waiting on two more roommates) sharing 3 bedrooms. There are 2 bathrooms--yes we have a bidet--and a total of 3 balconies. I am totally exhausted and finally going to get some sleep but I will update more later!
This is so exciting, Chels! I am so happy for you and ready to follow in your adventures...post, post, post!!! xoxo

ReplyDeleteChelsea,
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing experience. I love the pictures and the blogs. Looking forward to more. I am so glad you love your roomies. Kyle met some amazing people that he still keeps in touch with.
Enjoy.
