wine & pizza...my kinda place.

Hey everyone!

Sorry for the break in the blog...I am an RA while I am here in Italy, so the last couple days have just been alot of training- nothing ya'll would be interested with :) The first day of training we just took a campus tour and went through office type stuff, and we finished the night with all of us RAs and Adam, our kinda boss guy (he's a campus life coordinator) watching 21 Jump Street- SO FREAKING HILARIOUS. go see it. now. (warning- slightly inappropriate for families). The next day was just more training, so we decided to let loose last night. Before our festivities, we took a walk to a nearby town... the first few pictures are from the walk. Then we went to the only bar in Paderno, which is the sports bar on the recreational side of campus. After a glass of wine, we walked the 5 minutes to the outskirts of town (yeah its that small lol) to the pizzeria for our first taste of true Italian pizza! It was fantastic! The pictures will tell the rest of the story :)

                                                         not really sure what this is all about...

                                                        pretty Italian countryside

                                                             the nearby town we walked to

                                            Three words: WINE. ON. TAP.

                     Janani, myself and Emily...I tried a spritz, which I guess is a common pre-dinner drink in Italy

                   Just another entrance to where we are staying, Instituo Filippin (its the campus CIMBA is on)

                                     this is the name of the only restaurant in town- the pizzeria!

  My pizza! It was called Almalfi, and had dried tomatoes, something green, oreggano, buffalo cheese, and like a ton of other types of cheese- SO DELICIOUS.

                                     The gang! The girl sitting to the left of me is Abbey and the guy to the left is Maroo- they're the other two RAs :)


Well thats all for what happened the last couple days, I'll have another post tonight about my FANTASTIC day trip to Venice! Ciao!
