I'm in Italy, slowly remembering what summer feels like.
My skin is becoming more honey-coloured by the day.
My tongue is pierced and I can eat and speak normally again, and learning to love this new part of me (did you know that you cannot really be aware of your tongue unless it's pierced? It's pretty amazing to learn new things about your body every day).
I am eating a lot of good food (and getting annoyed with my parents, sometimes, for their complete lack of understanding of what food is and what it does for us, but that's a discussion for another day).
My lovely russian is here with me, and we spend many hours roasting by the pool, and being little frogs in the pool (her more than me). M is coming in a couple of days.
Life feels almost perfect. Now can I move all this to the UK? :)
