Home Sweet Home

i am finally home from italy, and after wanting to come home so bad, i have found myself wishing i was back in italy. ironic isn't it? italy was a blast to say the least and i had the time of my life, but here are the things i am thankful for since being home...

1. Clean Clothes (most importantly, having a dryer)
2. American food (give me some Dr. Pepper and a burger and fries)
3. American language (people actually understand what i am saying!)
4. Dollars (instead of Euros)
5. Walking outside and not having it smell like crap (or seeing dog poop on the sidewalks everywhere... EWWW)
6. Being able to drive (and driving between the lines and at the speed limit)
7. Sleeping in my own bed
8. Cooler weather (compared to 95 degrees and 100% humidity)
9. Being in the same time zone as my family and friends (and of course Zach) ;)
10. Not having to travel all the time (no more trains or public transportation!)
11. No more bug bites!

Things i miss from italy...
1. one word... GELATO
2. being able to walk everywhere
3. the buildings and architecture
4. Cappucino for 1 Euro
5. Seing the sights and experiencing the different culture
