    Hey it's Varun,
    Hey Evan! How is Italy so far in your first few days living there?
    I already miss you in school. Especially in math, lit, break and basketball practice and games. Hope to chat over Skype soon.
    See you later Evan.

    Looks like a great adventure is unfolding. As an art history major who never made it to Italy, I am going to enjoy following your blog! Lynn Pedersen
