On the go

So I'm in Berlin about to travel to Venice tomorrow, train to the Berlin airport, plane to Milan, train to Venice, hopefully find the hotel tomorrow amongst the maze that is Venice! Germany was definitely a culture shock, I've never experienced that as much as I have here. It was a little unnerving. Basically I'm just really excited to be in Italy tomorrow, in cities I've been before and a language I can kind of understand. The past week has been very busy, we've been traveling to a new city every 2 or 3 days, and it's getting exhausting. Don't get me wrong, I'm having a great time, but there is something to be said for not having to repack every 2 days. I will be very happy when I'm in Tuscania and can actually set up a home there for the next few months. The past two days I've been in the mental state of comparing what I know to the new. Part of me has that feeling of " I miss my home" but is also excited for the adventure ahead. It's all a transition. It feels like going away to college all over again, but this time it's better because since I have conquered the phase of leaving home for the first time 4 years ago, I know I can do this too. From Ireland, to Germany to Italy in two weeks. There are a few things I know. If I could live in Ireland for the rest of my life, I would be one very, very happy woman. Germany has amazing drink and Italy is where you go to speak passion.
