Milano
Hi everyone
realised i had forgotten to tell you all about my weekend in milano!
It was pretty good. The duomo there is probably the nicest one i have ever seen. I walked around the fashion district, saw the first ever prada store and generally felt like a bit of a hick. but also there was some pretty ugly bags and wat not for an enormous amount of money!! i ran into a transexual portrageus man who wanted to read my hand (creepy yet funny). and then i went to the Bicare (an art gallery) and lastly the castle. pretty big day!
The next day i went to Bergamo. This gorgeous little town that has an ancient vienese area perched on top of a hill and then down the bottom it is like your everday modern city. It was ok in the old area but i think at first i was really dissapointed because it was meant to have one of the nicest ancient city squares but i have been somewhat spoilt by prague, budapest and the like. but after a while i just happened to walk into one of the most stunning views of my life. you could see rolling hill tops and little housses scatered across the plains. very amazing and i came away feeling like life was quite grand! Then i ran into a creepy old man ( a story for another day ) and was thankful to make it back to my hostel.
I think all up it was a nice weekend but at the same time it was a bit lonely cos i had to do it all by myself. I am much more looking foward to this weekend where we are going to Seinna (on purpose this time!), San giminiano, and Assisi. yep we are covering that all in one long weekend!! but it should be all right cos they are tiny little cute towns on hills. But the most exciting part is that all us girls are going together. I think its quite lucky cos the 4 of us girls are getting along like a house on fire and we all just clicked (knock on wood). Everyone here that is studying is so nice and helpful that its making the expereince that much more awesome!
anyway, i miss you all and am looking forward to showing you photos...maybe i should learn how to load them up...maybe
love you

Hello there you adventurous girl you!
I'm so glad that you're having a fantastic time! Wow, when you get back you'll have to describe the clothes in the boutiques for me in minute detail, you do know that don't you. And the food. You went to Milan by yourself! Cool.
How are you finding the language and the way of living. Do you have a sleep in the middle of the day like I've heard everyone else does? How long do you think you'll have to wait in line to see David. You saw 2 people having sex in front of you at the sex show. To me thats unthinkable. Totally. Lots of details about the rest of the show please though (you know me).
My 21st party was pretty good. It finished early though and some er, dishonest person accisentally displaced my wallet in the girls toilets without the $240 remaining in it. But I sorta expected to spend the 200 anyway. I'm ok. Most of the people came, including OUR boyfriends. Hehe, sounds funny. Ash gave me a bottle of wine, I think his perception of nice presents is changing for the better ey. All my friends and workfriends got along well and I got nice presents. Luke is being adorable. I hope it lasts but we'll see. So many details to tell but I might tell you in a separate post. Anyhow, I'm glad your safe and well and having an awesome time with your mates, have a piece of pizza for me won't you.
Lots of love, Rach
