My room is far too hot and sticky, my hair is ruffled from countless sweeps of my stressed hands running through it and Dad is meticulously weighing my suitcase at intervals while I frantically throw out any unnecessary items. Suncream is in, Dante's 'Paradiso' from the Divine Comedy is most definitely out. Mum has resorted to taking a little nap on my bed. Buzzwords: stress and sweat.
Now two hours later, with my case having been packed, unpacked and repacked I'm finally set to go: year abroad here we come. I'm up in about two hours to set off on my journey to Venice where I'll be for 3 months, being an intern at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection. The idea of this blog is to share my travels with whoever cares to have a look. I'll be posting my thoughts and pictures about everything Venice and my experience there: any tips for places to visit, things to see, places to eat would be much appreciated! A regular feature will be ukulele videos of songs old and new. I wanted to post a video which relates to the title but didn't appreciate how horrifically long it takes to upload to YouTube so that will be up in a few days.
So here I go. Ciao for now.
