I started my event planning class on Thursday, which seems super interesting. All the classes here are super interesting. I think it's because they're taught by such interesting people. For example, my event planning professor, Simone Wolf, was born in Germany to a German father and Italian mother. She grew up, met an Italian man, fell in love, and now she lives outside of Florence. She runs an event planning business based out of Milan and finds the time to teach at LdM along with a few other universities. Such a cool life. The class is going to be a really great experience as well. We will be planning LdM's annual "Art in the Streets" event, which is a collaborative effort of the university's music, dance, art, sculpting, etc. programs. It's supposedly really well known in Florence.
There was a chocolate festival in Florence this weekend. So delicious. And Steph and I hit up the farmer's market, where I bought some vino. I'm becoming quite the connoisseur, with my favorite so far being a Chianti red wine from a little winery in Tuscany. It's the house wine at our restaurant in the piazza.
Speaking of which, we went and saw Pa for another delicious meal on Friday night with some friends visiting from Perugia. He gave us some good travel tips.
My life has become consumed with trying to find some Italian leather black boots, wondering when I will go get gelato next, and a lot of exploring throughout the city. Here's a view that Steph, Kelsey, and I stumbled upon yesterday.
