Traveling...ugh

Ciao a tutti,

So I want you to appreciate this moment – I am super dedicated. As of this moment I am on my flight from Philadelphia to Brussels and I am blogging. Dedication? I like to think so.

I really wish that I never have to meet four o’clock in the morning ever again. That’s what I said when I rolled out of bed this morning. – to which I forgot as I hurriedly threw everything where it belonged and ran out the door and to my demise it was raining outside. I got to the airport and while checking in and I almost passed out – quite literally – because I realized I couldn’t find my passport. Then Mom came up and showed me where it was.

Then we had a teary parting. I waited for my flight – went to Philadelphia with no problem. But then I had the daunting task to pass 8 hours in the airport…I didn’t fare too well. And I must say, what the heck American dollar? You’re sucking real bad for me.

I’ve met a ot of interesting people, like I always do. I’ve spent about half the flight (right under 7 hours) gabbing with a woman from Belgium but has Spanish parents. I don’t have to much to update on.

I just don’t know what to expect from Italy. I don’t know what to expect. I don’t feel apprehensive or nervous. Just sort of…holding my breath before the plunge, I suppose. I’m supposed to be living with a girl named Alessia. It should be interesting. I get into Naples about 4pm and then I’m going to my apartment (I will post pictures as soon as I can) then the next day is sort of orientation. Apparently classes don’t start until October but language training and orientating myself to the city goes into full effect.

So, sorry if this was kind of a boring post, I don’t have too much to update. The next one will be pictureful, I promise (that ism if I have the Internet…)

Ci sentiamo domani,

Kevin
