The Italian Job

Another night out with those loveable Italians. Hookah was the theme for the night..another great night of my italian language-immersion program. It is going to be sad to see them go. It has been so fun showing them new and different things from the italian culture. The other night we took them for sushi and hibatchi.. although only one was a fan of sushi, they all tried it, and learning english words muffin (which they loved to eat now)...and prounced maffee. I am now counting down my days to return back to Italy!

Catia, Marcello, Alexandria (GC & Marcello's cousin) Giancarlo



Their first Hookah experience


Five are the same, and one is different


You wouldn't be able to tell that they didn't even speak the same language as each other!

Hoboken

Saturday we took Jenn down to Hoboken to experience Jersey at its best! Giancarlo's cousin and her friends were also in town from Italy and we got a chance to spend the weekend with them... trying our best to pick out Italian words that we might understand, but also gave Jenn the "Sunday Italian dinner" experience, which even I'm still trying to get used too!

Ahoy, Matey!

This past weekend, one of my best friends came out for the weekend. Friday night we had the opportunity to go on a boat cruise... it was actually an alumni event for a college that we didn't graduate from but hey, free is free! The boat went all around New York and the weather couldn't have been more perfect!
