Live from London, read all about my trip abroad!
last from the road

Today, I got into my final stop of my trip, Paris. I'm here to see an old friend from home and to see the large chunk of the city I missed last time I was here. Since I last wrote I've been through Milan, down to Florence, down furthur to Rome and now up to Paris. Italy was great, good food, great weather, great sights/walking. But, by the time I was leaving I was ready to be out of Italy. You can only eat so much pizza, and all the resturanuts are either dreadfuly touristy, or way to expensive for a poor backpacker like myself. I did meet some of the best people in the hostels I stayed in there, though. I met two people in Florence, and ended up booking my hostel in Rome because it was the one they were going to.

I'm still taking load of pictures, how can you not keep clicking in the Vatican! When I get back and am able to hook up my camera to my laptop, I'll put up the best of the best here. (have to, can't put up all 1300!)

I have tonight, tomorrow night then I catch an afternoon train back to London! I can't believe it's gone this fast. But, I'm ready to get back to London, back to not having to look for a place to stay every night, a place to cook, a place to see people everyday. London, atleast socially, has become my home, and I'm alright with that.

That is so great that you've gotten to see so many amazing placecws while studying abroad! Yet another reason why I'd love to do so myself!
