Terralba

I went to terralba for an AFS obligation week.
i had to stay with a new host family, which was really stressful at first, but once i met them i was completely happy, Marta, Andrea and Kristian were the cutest family ever, haha.
Marta spoke english which was very helpful and Andrea spoke italian so i got a mix of both, and the baby was well a baby, and spoke no languages, haha, he was so cute.

so we started teh week off just going to orientation and i went out at night with a friend, Sharon, who is from Alaska and is really flippin awesome, we would go to her host sisters bar and eat french fries and talk, it was really fun.

then one night we went to a discotecha! it was awesome, it was just a big club place and we danced and had fun til i got tired, then we went home.

then we went to carnavale, ohhhhh carnavale how i love you so.
it was a huge parade where everyone was dressed up as some kind of animal or something and all the AFS kids had to dress as pirates, which at first i was not happy about but then i just embraced it and had fun.
it was so amazing, we walked for like 5 hours and danced and had a great time, i was getting sick so i went home right after, everyone else went out and had fun.

then the next day we went to oristano for sartiliga which is basically guys on horses trying to get this tiny star that hangs from a string.
it was so exciting to watch, it was so intense, i got to see 3 people get it! it was epic.
then we had to leave and go back to terralba for a second parade.

the second one was a lot crazier, because a lot more people were drunk and they all love the AFS girls so it was really funny, but really scary at the same time.
they kept asking for kisses from the girls, haha, it was funny.
that night i wasn't as sick so i went out with sharon and we went to martins and ate french fries and we danced around, it was really fun.

then the next day we went home to our extended living places in sardinia.

and this weekend i might go back to go to another parade!
i'm so excited!
:D

i miss everyone at home.
i love you guys.
