HI!!!!

So it's been a crazy few days. 48 hours of no sleep, an 8.5hr plane ride with two screaming infants means awesome traveling fun. My roommates very cool. Heather, she kind of reminds me of you!!
As for Italia...it's absolutely stunning. I've spent the last few days walking around getting to know the area and it's been great. It's not as hot as I was told it'd be, so i feel underprepared clothing wise. Which...is disappointing, and not planned at all;). Everything seems relatively cheap here. A bottle of wine is literally 5 euros. 5!! How does that even make sense? And the fashion is very cool. I've noticed that the Sienese (Siennese?) love their sparkly things. Like their sequin shorts, and sequin shoes, and sparkly gems here and there. It would be Rachel Zoe's heaven.

I've only seen Siena, but thus far the scenary is absolutely beautiful. Siena is so hilly. For all of you who told me I'd fatten up, you may be right but there are so many steep hills it might be hard to pack 'em on.
I will post photos soon. Tomorrow we're going to the coast so I'm sure that I'll have some Ocean pictorials.

I miss you all. Talk soon,

Sheils
