I took a wonderful train ride from Milan to Zurich and I decided to make a video about it. Enjoy! P.S. It is funny how I thought July would be the month of Blogging, but it happened to be the month of video making!

I decided to paint my face while I was packing. I got a bit distracted....So here are some pictures and a video! Travel stories to come.

So....as I wrote before, I went to Italy. I stayed in Italy for about a week. I guess I have been putting off writing this post and sharing pictures because I didn't quite know how to explain the situation that evolved without offending anyone. Ok, here goes. Compassion compassion compassion. To myself and the world. I am in Germany now, and that was not originally the plan. I planned on staying in Italy for 3 weeks, just as my exchange student had stayed in my home for 3 weeks.  Unfortunately the exchange experience was uncomfortable for me and not what I had expected.

Driving 1 hour from Milan I nestle into my host sister's bedroom Half of my time figuring out what this or that means in Italian Waving smoke from my face I draw They are intrigued The Russian lady draws me a cat and a bear on the plane My host dad likes my drawings I sketch the cobblestones while hearing the language of this city being spoken all around Thunder again I saw lighting today I could barely see the car in front of me In Biella you circle around and around And wonder who did this before me? A city with a history of over 1,000 years. The girls dress in long black tunics Chockers Bandos The boys wear tight jeans Puffy Hair Polo shirts I
