DAY 9 : 23 November 2014
The fact that it has now been over a week since I flew away from Australia absolutely shocks and amazes me. And the fact that I only have 13 more weeks of this fantastic experience makes it all seem too short!
In the past two days, I have tried coffee for the first time (it was espresso, and frankly very very disgusting); eaten mozzarella in all it's various forms (fried mozzarella, mozzarella covered in breadcrumbs, mozzarella wrapped in bacon); and have started forming REAL ITALIAN SENTENCES (for example; Lei legge il libro (she reads the book)). Nothing too intelligent but it means that I can grasp even the most basic of ideas of what people are saying at school or at home.
I've also begun figuring out my own way around the streets of Udine, and trust me when I say that it is very, very complicated!
Allegra and I walked to the park, and as she recently got a Nikon camera just like mine for her birthday, we were taking lots of snaps as the sun was going down...
It's been getting absolutely freezing these past few days (reaching a very uncomfortable 4 degrees last night when we went out) and there is already snow forming on the mountains!
My days are now very much a routine; school, home, food, but I should hopefully have some good photos to share in the next few days!!
Love,
Jen
Well done with the espresso coffee Jen yep it is disgusting, cappuccino or latte coffee is better. The Italians drink it so strong so its not a good intro to coffee. Have a great 2nd week sweetheart. Xxxxxx
