last night in the apartment

this was my last day in siena.
i woke up, met lila and kat at meet life cafe. our favorite cafe, partly because of the presence of the two hot brother baristi. one of them asked me today if i wanted a job there. probably because i'm there so often. i laughed and said if i was staying i'd love to work there for sure.
no more meet life. or campo. today i mailed a postcard. then i walked to the campo, the main piazza in town. i sat in the late afternoon sun. so relaxing. i laid back and mildly dozed off for 15 minutes. it's a lot like being at the beach. laying in sun, hearing chatter all around you, staring up into the clear blue sky, the campanile's prominent stance overseeing it all.
i cannot believe this is my last night here. it feels like i am leaving for a weekend trip and will come back monday. it feels like when i left michigan, i felt like i was going on a 2 week vacation.

and now it has already been 3 months...

it is amazing how much one can learn and grow in such a short amount of time. of course it helps if the location is pleasant to be in, too. if inspiring, the result is even better.

tomorrow will be the saddest walk to piazza gramsci's bus stazione ever. i am leaving my Siena.
