ciao bellesimo pisa, firenze e venizzia and dober dan slovenia.
this keyboard im using is really funny and no postcards have been sent as stamps in italy cost one good sized kidney-which frankly im rather attatched to! i have been writing them to all you lovelies, looking quite like a squirrell with ink! the z is next to the t and the u-i dont think you can make the word typewriter out of the top line! i am so humbled at how lovely and friendly slovenians are-im just here in ljubjana until monday mid-day and got here at about half 3 last night on THE most surreal sleeper train in my life! there were some really wonderful people-a texan couple who have invited me (after i semi invited myself...!) to come look after horses on their ranch! but then i got chatting to these two chaps who were on the erasmus scheme from UCL staying in bologna. i thought they were really cool and the first 2 hours were really funny and it was odd to be hanging out with people from britain as ive been travelling with this amazing canadian called simone for the past 3 days and we both didnt realise how big the culteral differences were-so fun to chat about. but then as one of them studies classics and the other linguistics, they spent like 3 hours declining latin, having mini competitions to see who could find the origins of words! interesting perhaps in a different context but not when i was nearly weeing myself with excitement that we were crossing the border into slovenia on my first onland international transfer!
loveee you, lovveee me, looovin life :D
p.s i realise this has not even given a snippet of how i am in my head, what ive been doing, but i have taken 3000 photos in 5 days and had to buy a new diary, so everything will be explained and shared when i get back. also no worries on the rape and mugged front as the worst thing thats happened so far is screaming at simone coming back from the toilet as i thought she was a rapist. she wasnt, i didnt get raped, but the whole campsite woke up. ciaooo!
Soooo excited to hear from you Kate! but no I am desperate for more snippets. in fact i want a whole role a of fabric not just snippets!!! pleasee to are safe and happy and I am very excited to hear all about it on ChannelKateTV when you get back xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
