On the west coast of Italy there is a region called Cinque Terre (Cheen-qua-tear-eh) which means Five Lands. Its a chain of 5 little towns that hang off the cliffs of the Mediterranean coastline. This place it amazing. The towns are tiny and so full of personality. We hiked from town to town and marveled at the the amazing sites.
We stayed in this little village and just soaked in the wondrous moments of life far from the city.

This trip also brought me to Spain during Semana Santa (Holy Week) where the festivities were unreal!
A wonderful couch surfing family that fed me and treated me really well.
In Granada Spain with Ruby
This video shows an example of the many processions that occur during holy week in the south of Spain. Those who dress with pointy hat are not from the KKK. the KKK totally stole the idea from these Catholic Nazarenes. Still scary nonetheless.
In Madrid.
When I got back Joe Biden came to talk to us in Brussels. Very interesting.
After three months here I've decided that these times been the most exciting and wild of my life. I got to meet so many people and see so many places. I feel fortunate to have had this experience.
Thanks for reading!
