Seregno, Italy!!!

This was the saddest day in Italy...I felt like I was in Rexburg. Luckily it was sunny the next day and the snow melted


This street is where I go to teach English lessons to Nicolo (7) & Diletta (5). This is what a typical "neighborhood" looks like! Friendly huh??! Ha

This is the center of Seregno. I walk through here everyday to get everywhere. It is such a cute town. But it's taken me a while to learn the Italian schedule here. From around 9:30 in the morning until noon, only food stores are open. Then EVERYTHING closes during lunch time, which is 12:30-3:30. So that's why the streets were totally empty when I took this picture. Then After lunch all of the clothing stores and other shops are open. It's crazy....I'm finally getting used to it now.

So this is totally where I live! The house is beautiful!! The little house all the way to the right is where Nonno & Nonna live (grandpa and grandma....but they are actually Marco's grandparents, so great grandparents to the kids). Simona didn't want me to take pictures until Spring when the garden looks pretty, but I still think everything is awesome! To the left of the house (not in the picture) is the garden and a small room/house with glass walls. They use it for paaaaaaarties during summer! I can't wait!!!
Dad- I'm goin to lay out every day :]
