There were not enough camps this week for all the tutors, so a group of 40 tutors was put on "hold" in Bajardo, a small town in the mountains 23 kilometers from Sanremo. We are staying in houses that seem like they're from the middle ages...there is no internet access in the town...and we have killed a few scorpions...but the view (when it's not raining) is incredible! The weather has been cold and rainy this week, but we have had a few daytrips to escape the cold! Monday we went to a Bussana, a little mountain community of international artists; Wednesday we went to Cannes, France and Monaco; and today I came down the mountain into Sanremo to use the internet! Cannes and Monaco were absolutely beautiful and they made me want to learn French!!! The French people are so beautiful, the language is beautiful, and the food is delicious! In my two hours in France, I had fresh, melt-in-your-mouth strawberries; a nutella-filled crepe; and a ham and cheese quiche! Monaco was really beautiful too; we saw the palace in Old Monaco and also Monte Carlo, the famous casino!
Tonight I find out where I'll be for camp next week (my first camp!) and tomorrow I'm going to Sanremo to observe a camp and help out.
I also have an Italian phone now! +39 327-225-1875 : )
I will try to update again soon, depending on if I can get internet access! But until then, enjoy some photos from my time so far!
