Hey. I'm home. Leaving Perugia was funny. We had an awesome week - Christmas parties, dinners, all kinds of stuff. The night that everyone else left, we all went out until 1am and then took them to their group bus. It was so funny - everyone was dancing in bars and then they just went home, got their stuff, and went to the airport. Everyone at the buses was yelling "have a nice life!" and half the people were crying and half were laughing and everyone ...
