Buon Compleanno, Mama!

Happy 21st birthday, Mom. Now I don't have to buy your wine for you anymore. Ti amo!!

Ho trovato un appartamento

Finally, I have found and reserved my apartment in Trastevere. Its different than last summer, on the other side of Trastevere, actually. Its always a gamble, as photos are totally misleading, but I suppose that's part of the adventure. Its got a sofa bed in case any of you get motivated to come join me in Italia. Stop complaining and fork over a months salary for your airline ticket!

Cute!!

Yup, that's a pool. Ok, its only a meter deep but its something, at least, when the temp is over 100!

A table for two, me and you. Buy the damn ticket, already.

The "kitchenette" where I have no intention of cooking dinner. . . Carlo Menta for lasagna, Cafe Artu for spaghetti cacio e pepe, and Pizzeria San Calisto for shitgodamn good pizza. Will probably keep some vino in the itty bitty fridge, just in case you show up to have un bichierre con mio by the pool.

Where all the magic happens (totally joking, Mom and Dad)!
