Album:2012:07-06 Ursis Wedding Italy
|
|
Between Herrang weeks 1 and 2 I pop down to Italy to go to my teaching partner and friends Ursi and Mattias' wedding in Certaldo, Italy in Tuscany.
It's my first time in Italy for more than a couple of hours and the food is amazing. Amazing.
Amazing.
Though the airlines completely screw up my luggage, and it's a week before I see it (back in Sweden, eventually)
