SIENA!!!

I'M FINALLY HERE!!!! I arrived in Florence today at about 11ish and then got a ride from Guenter down to Siena. It was a beautiful drive and Siena is absolutely gorgeous. I am super excited to be here and already I'm loving it! My apartment was much bigger than I was expecting. We have a nice little foyer, a pretty big living room, 2 decent sized bedrooms, a bathroom, and a decent sized kitchen, with lots of seating. I just explored a little around Il Campo (a cobblestone plaza) with 2 of my roommates (one is from NH, the other from New Orleans). We have an Italian roommate, but we haven't met her yet because she has classes. There are so many more stores than I was expecting and so many neat little stores and caffe's that I'm sure I will be frequenting them a lot on my way to class. I can't wait to explore more and figure out all the treasures of Siena! I am loving my life right now and feel like I am living the dream and I haven't even been here for a day! :)
