My week was rather simple this time around. My host sister was home for Christmas break (her last week before getting back, she didn’t like to talk about it haha) so I spent a lot of time with her. This week definitely tested me in some instances. But I learned to let go and remember that I’m in Italy, living abroad — amazing! Thankfully, I FaceTimed with my family and friends a lot this week. I miss them all so much and honestly can’t wait to see them all. Even more though, I saw my cats and I’ve nevertheless been more proud to admit that I’m a cat lady than this moment because I miss my cats SO MUCH. Although I did get to ring in the new year with my host family, and that was a lot of fun. Getting to see other traditions and eating other food. 

 

Other than my week, this weekend I went in a small day trip to Trento. The word for that city is quaint for sure. Small, and quiet. I went in the first Sunday of the month which meant free museums! I got to see the castle of Trento, and the science museum! To be honest I’m very glad they were free becaus I can’t imagine myself paying otherwise haha. I also went on the last day that the Christmas markets were up, thankfully so because I found a great gift there. I hope this next week is full of happiness and peace.
