AFS Trip

Salve Tutti!
So last week I went to Pescaserolli (small town in the mountains) for a weekend with AFS.

I got to talk with all my friends and just hang out! The mountains were amazing, fog, sheep, horses, italian buildings, multicolored leaves BELLISIMO! After visiting a small town I kind of wish I was living in one, the mountain air was so fresh and all the trees were beautiful! But I am glad I am living in a "city" because there is more to do, I'm sure if I was in a small town I would be saying the same about a city. So on the first day we went to a small bear sanctuary, I was really more interested in the leaves and talking with my friends.

After the bear sanctuary we walked to the top of a small mountain; it was absolutely incredible and everything you saw looked like it belonged on a desktop! I got to run around and take many beautiful photos!!! 

The next day we started thinking about the talent show we had to do, we were seperated into 3 groups; 1 had to do a skit about family, the other school and the other communication. My group did school and lets just say we were not prepared...

Saturday was the most epic night! That night, after the talent show, a whole group of kids played truth or dare til 4 in the morning!!! And the AFS volunteers joined us too! It was a lot of fun, I laughed a lot and got to know some people very well (not that you wanted to hear that mum)...The next day we packed our bags and went to a pretty town over the mountains called San Donato V.C.

It was super cute, and I got to take a whole bunch of pretty pictures of the town.

After the brief tour we drove to a restaurant for our last lunch together, when we sat down there was wine at our table and all the students got really excited because the whole weekend we weren't allowed to drink, but then all the volunteers went around and collected the bottles, and took it to their table.

After a long long bus ride to the train station everyone said their goodbyes and went home.
I had way too much fun with my friends and I miss them a lot. And for some reason, after spending a weekend, mostly talking English with my friends, I have started talking more in Italian and I've started to understand more, I still cant figure out what happened....
