" O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name.
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love
And I'll no longer be a Capulet."
"O Romeo, Romeo! arte perché tu Romeo?
Nega tuo padre e rifiuta il tuo nome.
Oppure, se vuoi, non essere giurato ma il mio amore
E io non sarò più una Capuleti ".
I went to Verona with AFS in the Christmas holidays. It was one of my top 5 cities so far! I absolutly fell in love with this city! Something about it just caught me. The actual city itself was amazingly beautiful! We had to take the train from Rimini for a few hours to arrive in Verona! My host sister also came along with us which was awesome :) and of course there was Chloe my twin from America!
When we arrived in verona I swear my nose was as red as Rudolph's! It was so cold that if you spat it would have frozen before it reached the ground!!! Ok maybe not that cold but it was still cold for this little kiwi whose body thinks it's should be summer right now!!! We visited a arena that is similar to the coloseum and got attacked by the fake knights out the front wanting money for taking photos with them! Having an Icelandic friend whose blonde with blue eyes didn't help us disguise ourselves as undercover italians with strange accents and pocket dictionaries!
It was amazing inside!!!........for the first half hour then i got tired of examining the ancient rocks. sasso.....sasso.......sasso......oooooh un'altro sasso! finally after taking a million photos with rocks and milling around for a good twenty minutes admiring the rocks we left! A group of us decided to go and get hot chocolates....brilliant idea if i don't say so myself! After we went window shopping and perved on the italian guys ice skating!

And of course I wrote mine and my sister's name on Juilet's wall! wouldn't be the perfect tourist if I didn't! :)
To finish the day off we went to a bar and had a cappuccino and one of the best chocolate cakes!
