    I think the coolest part about being here is the connections I find. There’s a line at the end of Fiddler on the Roof when everyone is leaving Anatevka. Tevye is heading to New York and hears that his friend is going to Chicago. “We’ll be neighbors!” Here it is just the opposite. We all traveled from so many places in the United States only to realize many of us have domestic connections. One of my friends here goes to college 40 minutes from me. A faculty member knows my dad’s best friend. People are from the same city or state and had never met until they got here. Who knew I could travel thousands of miles away and still find people who live so close to me.

    Hello. My time is running short, and you will no doubt have questions, but all I have time to say is this: Stay vigilant as you roam the streets of Italy, for tricksters and vampires roam the streets in the same steps.
    Godspeed
