Red

The title of this post is Red, because Taylor Swift's new CD came out and it is the best CD I have ever heard in my entire life. I love her more than words can describe. Literally obsessed... it's creepy. But anyyywayyysss! Back to the whole reason I am posting... well frankly it's because I live in this place called Italy ;) I can't even describe how much I love it here... I don't think I would trade this for anything. I know I say that alot, but I really mean it. I love it more than anything here... and everything that makes this difficult is outweighed by the pure beauty of this country. You don't understand beauty until you live in a place with soooo much history and architecture, and mountains, and the sea... and grapes, and Italian people in general. Never in my life have I met such amazing people. I will always have a special place in my heart for Italians... I think after this I will consider myself part Italian. I hope my children will get to experience something like this because it truly has changed my life. Two months in and I have learned so much not only about this place, but myself. My confidence has been boosted a thousand percent.. I am so much more open and I love being around new people now. I honestly am a completely different person in a totally good way.

Now lets see, I feel like a lot has happened since I last posted, but honestly, so much happens in a day it is hard to keep up. I already posted some pictures of Monterosso but none of the scenery really so now I will post a few of those. FOr those of you who don't know, Monterosso is one of the five towns in Cinque Terra. They line the west coast of Italy along the Mediterranian sea. It is the most beautiful place I have EVER been in my entire life. So here are a few pictures... :)



This is the view from near the top of a mountain overlooking the sea. And yes the water was that blue. No editing done :)

 One of the towns in Cinque Terra, soooo beautiful. I took all of these pictures on a small digital camera and they still look this beautiful.... that is how stunning it truly was.


 Proof I was actually here ;) Me reppin' K-State! You're welcome Molls <3 LOVE YOUUUU!

So there is a few pictures so you know just how truly beautiful it actually was there. Now I will post a few random pictures of random things I do in this lovely town of Cremona <3

 My two favorite people in this lovely country :) Connor and Kayleigh!!!! We went to a school party and lets just say it was practically a club lol. So we are nasty looking cause it was soooo hot in there. But it was sooo cool to see how Italians have fun. Definitely something new hahah.

 This gives you an idea of how many people were here... about 800... yep. My mom was a little concerned when I showed her lol. But I am very proud to say I didn't break a single Rotary rule! You should be proud of me Robert and Stephen! I always follow the rules! :)

 Me going down a slide... I love this picture... it shows how crazy the exchange students act in public lol.


That's about all the pictures I have for now! And I am Skyping my mommy so I gotta goooo! Until next time <3 Kari!
