Friends and Free Time


Already I have met many new friends and on Saturday night, I got to experience what Italian teenagers do on the weekends. Our whole class went out for pizza at a local restaurant in Cagliari. Though I couldn't talk with all my friends very well, it was still fun to sit and listen to them talk about school and family and anything teens normally talk about. Afterwards, we walked around the city center, getting gelatos and meeting up with other students at our school. With all the outdoor cafes and places to hang out, the city center is where many teens go to hang out at night. We didn't even finish until about midnight, but that seems to be pretty common. The city certainly offers a lot of things to do.

  2. Aren't there any boys in Italy??!! Are you going to an all girls school?

    Just kiddin', we're glad you're having a great time. I remember that Gelato is fabulous. I tried to get some in KC a couple of months ago - not the same.
