last visit to perugia
Perugia has been my crash-landing pad between jaunts (a free bed—errr, blanket on the floor—thanks to my sister's study-abroad semester). This marks my last Perugian breather, though—for this trip, at least. Final destination: the Iberian Peninsula.

l'ombrello giallo
Is it still considered eavesdropping if you can't understand what's being said? Either way, I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I just liked her yellow umbrella.

cinque terre
This is the end of a week's stay in Cinque Terre. The weather report before I came promised a pretty bleak week, but I've had at least three gorgeous days of full sun, so in the end I've been able to enjoy the area under all circumstances, from hiking the complete coastal trail in lovely sun to cuddling up with endless cups of tea, listening to the rain from our little hostel's terrace overlooking Riomaggiore. Need I say it has all been very relaxing?

piedi in orvieto
Caffè break in Orvieto, Italy.
Exciting stuff, this. Guess which are tourists and which are natives.
buon giorno, italia
My first week in Italy è finito. Five of us (my mom, dad, brother Michael, sister Melissa, and I) moseyed around Umbria and Tuscany by car and train, relaxing in our country house near Citta della Pieve each night. Highlight of the week: Civita, a tiny—dying—village perched precariously on a pinnacle in the middle of a canyon just south of Orvieto, accessed only by a footbridge from the (less-dangerously situated) neighbor town Bagnoregio.
