So today was part orientation, part classes. We got shown around a bit by Luca, the Italian Director in charge of arranging our study abroad on the Italian end. Then we had class this afternoon for an hour and a half. Tomorrow i have cooking class and then free time. Pretty excited for it all.
So it was just our luck that we miscommunicated with our host mom and we ended up being late this morning. We were ready on time, but ended up not understanding things so we arrived a few minutes late. Sad day huh? The rest of the day went well though. Soon we will head back to the house and have dinner with the host family. It is a bit of an ordeal considering how bad both of our Italian skills are. It could be way worse. Our mom is nice though, so that's good. She is very patient with us and tries to speak a bit slower when trying to tell us something. Luckily Sharissa is really good at spanish and can understand a bit more than me. Sadly it means she also replies in spanish a lot. We'll figure it out eventually. |
