A week in ..

Well , its been a week ( or almost ) since I left Canada. My body finally seems to be adjusting to the different climate , food , culture etc. I don't really have anything interesting to say but once I post pictures I think it says it all for me. I have made a new friend , her name is Angella and she is a fellow Au Pair here in Cagliari. I haven't done as much exploring as I wouldve liked to yet because it is still so warm ( on average feels like 40 ) but I live right downtown so I have seen some of the main sights . After the french paragraph there will be some pictures .

Voilà déjà une semaine ( ou presque ) depuis mon départ du Canada. Mon corps semble finalement s`habituer à son entourage ( climat , culture , bouffe etc..). Je n'ai rien vraiment d'intéressant a dire mais une fois que j'ajoutes les photos tous sera dit pour moi. Je me suis faite une nouvelle amie qui est elle aussi Au Pair ici à Cagliari. Je n'ai pas pu explorer autant que j'aurais voulue car la chaleur est encore trop grande ( une moyenne de 40 à tous les jours ) mais j'habites au centre ville et je suis proche de quelques unes des plus grandes attractions. Je vous laisse donc avec d'autres photos !

Ciao Italia

First day in Cagliari . It was a very tiring one. After maybe 4 hours of sleep ( being sick all night ) , I got up and got ready for the beach. Note to self : DRINK MORE WATER. Getting up this morning , I was looking for my money belt which had in it about 100$ CAN and 80 Euros , my ID and my debit card . I COULDNT FIND IT.. i figured it was my exhaustion getting the best of me. I eventually found it well hidden at the bottom of my back pack. Other than that everything is pretty good. Getting over Jetlag sucks though. ( especially with a stomach flu ) . Feeling a little disconnected from my world back home but i`m guessing that will improve with time. Here are a few pictures of Cagliari !


Première journée a Cagliari. Je suis complètement epuisée. Apres avoir eu peut etre 9 heures de sommeil dans les derniers trois jours , mon corps commence a me montrer qu'il n'est pas content. Donc il décide de me faire une petite gastro , youpi. En plus , ce matin belle crise de panique lorsque je ne trouvait pas mon porte feuille qui contenait toutes mon argent canadienne , ma carte debit , ma carte d'identitée ainsi qu'une centaine d'euros. J'ai fini par le trouver au fond de mon sac à dos ( niaiseuse ) . Je m'ennuies aussi beaucoup de tout le monde chez nous. Mais je pense ca va mieux aller avec le temps. Je vous laisse donc avec quelques photos de Cagliari . :)

Today's the day .

Well , in twelve hours I will be on a plane to Montreal , then off to Rome. I was expecting to be much more emotional than I am. I think i'm just too excited to start this new adventure to really be sad about leaving. Its a once in a lifetime experience, and its only for a year . A year is nothing ! So to give you a better idea of where I'll be / What i'll be doing . I'm going to work as an Au Pair ( nanny ) in the city of Cagliari on the island of Sardinia , Italy.

In the morning , I will be free to do as I please (go see the sights, take Italian language courses ( which I need BADLY) , go to the beach ( which is a half hour walk away) , or just relax. In the afternoon until early evening I will be taking care of the little Vittoria.

Well I think thats all for now. More posts and PICTURES to come . Ciao for now !
