So, to kick off this blog, I have just a little bit to share. I left MSP airport at around 10am local time on Thursday, finally getting to Florence at 9:25am local time, making my total travel time around 17 hours, but in reality nearly exactly one whole day, due to time zone changes. Getting off the plane at Florence was a joy in and of itself, going from -20˚ wind chills to near 50s was a great welcome from Italy.
After a somewhat terrifying and exciting taxi drive, Stephen, Tyler and I got to our apartment, on the second floor of Via del Mezzetta 4a, Firenze. The place itself is incredible. Very roomy and balconies with great views. The three of us had some quick spaghetti (my first Italian meal, who would have expected spaghetti?) and are currently awaiting Garrett and Kevin, our other roommates. I hope the frigid Minnesota weather has calmed down a bit, and I promise to have a bit more exciting news with the next post. That's all for now, ciao.
Scott
