Romania

I'm in Romania right now with my aunt, not much time to write but for the past two days her friend drove us through the mountains near Ukraine in northern Romania and we looked at old wooden churches with no nails and beautiful cemeteries and went to this tiny little village where this woman invited us in and gave us some fruit liquor and fresh bread and pork and pickles and she showed us her cows and pigs and gave us fresh warm milk. Then we stayed at a wonderful little house for the night and they cooked us this giant dinner of Romanian food and we watched them feed goats. The next day we looked at some more churches and did a little picnicking next to a river.

Anyways, I'm flying back to Barcelona tomorrow and then on to the United States on Sunday!

Londres

Hey everybody, sorry for the lack of posts. I've been really busy moving out of my homestay and packing up. Right now I am in Brighton visiting fellow MCAD student Jenny Tondera, with my friend Julia that I met in Barcelona. Here we are!



Last weekend we visited London and saw big ben, the tate modern, westminster for an organ recital and many many other places. Today, Julia and I visited stonehenge, it was about two and a half hours away by train and a little bus. It was really cool and eerie only a little bit.
