When I first mentioned the name of the course I was going to follow in Siena to one of my best friends, she only giggled. La dolce vita, that’s nothing you can learn – in her opinion. But trust me: once you enter the magical world of this course, the Italian way of life will have an everlasting influence on everything you’ll do! La dolce vita definitely is not the same as the famous dolce far niente.

Jump to the full entry & travel map Tacloban, Visayas, Philippines Helloo, I can’t believe I only have 10 days left here. I feel like there is so much more I could do that I just don’t have the time to. I really want to come back here though. If not next year then I would really like to in two years. My host family has become like a second family to me. I totally understand what the many exchange students we had throughout my childhood went through during their stays. I have become so used to it here that I am not sure how I will adjust when I get home. I mean obviously it will be easy to go back to since it is the life I have been living for 19 years. But I am sure it will be really strange leaving here for so long. I haven’t been doing anything too exciting this week. We have gone to the movies three times so far just because we aren’t very busy. We were supposed to take Vincent for his follow-up appointment today but he ended up going to school. Which is really good news. His sisters had told us that he was going to skip school for this year to hopefully “get better”. But today was his second day back at school. Vincent has changed so much since he got out of the hospital. He smiles and talks to us. Vincent definitely feels better. When I was sitting with him at the hospital the other day he was playing a game and I could hear him making little shooting noises. It was adorable. After being in so many wheelchairs he is starting to be able to maneuver himself pretty well too
