Piazzale Michelangelo

Two weekends ago my roommates and I finally had the chance to visit Piazzale Michelangelo here in Florence. Piazzale Michelangelo has the best view of Florence. Here are our pics from this lovely afternoon.

This place is named after Michelangelo Buonarroti who created the David.

UCD Italian Majors Meet Up In Florence!!

So I am extremely lucky to have two of my fellow Ags - more importantly, Italian majors- here in Florence. Krystal and Lilly are here studying abroad with UCD so I contacted them because I was feeling a bit lonely.

 The other night we met up and they took me to this wonderful place called the Yellow Bar where I had yummy Spaghetti al Pomodore e Basilico.
It was delicious. Then they took me to a gelateria with the cutest name, Perché no? (Why Not?). I am so glad we could meet up in Italia especially since they push me to speak Italian. Plus, this experience brings us together. We have studied the Italian culture together and here we are now experiencing it together. Its amazing. I can tell that I am going to enjoy every moment here. :)

Here are some pics of us posing with the replica of Michelangelo's David in the Piazza della Signoria:
