Italy day 1 and 2!

We made it here to Italy safe and sound. It is as beautiful as I remember and I am loving it more and more. Today we arrived at our home for two weeks, Casa Cares. It is an amazing building with amazing volunteers and staff. This place has their own garden, many olive trees, and even some animals. They make their own olive oil and even have bee houses and so make their own honey. I am deeply in love.
We are learning many things about Italy as a country and about it region by region. We have also been told of all of our lectures/informational sessions and they all look great. I am quite interested in our talk Monday from a local Italian about Psychiatric and Mental Health services in Italy. Sounds cool to me.
