Week 1

My first week in Italy, I visited Arezzo. The weather had been terrible the first couple of days we touched down in Italy and I wasn’t sure if I was going to enjoy my stay. Our first field trip, which are always on Wednesday’s, was to Arezzo which is only a 10-minute train ride away from Castiglion Fiorentino.

Arriving in Arezzo we met up with Giovanni, our subjectively humorous tour guide, and he showed us around the city. The funniest moment of the tour occurred when we were locked outside of the museum. Giovanni motioned towards someone who was near the door. I noticed the man slowly limping towards the door as Giovanni mutters, “Of course they would hire a handicapped man to open the doors”, to my utter astonishment. That man is going to hell and I will be joining him.
