Sweetzerlandt

 Folks!

The semester began with a flurry, including a week of auditions slamming right into the first week of rehearsals slamming right into weekend trips back to Chicago for various personal and professional reasons, so Once More We Languish Online.

However! As a placeholder! Here's a video I cut together waaaaay back toward the end of my travels, marking the crossing from Italy to Switzerland on the Bernina Express route. (Not the Express itself - this train was cheaper AND open air. Double win!)

All of which is to say: please bask in the joy of my beloved Trains, and next weekend - which as of now looks to be my first weekend with no unpacking, city-shuttling, or major non-school-related projects - maybe I'll even use WORDS to describe my time IN Switzerland! What a time to be alive!

Grab Bag III: The Regrabbening of the Bag

OK, so, life is once again in ultra-high gear as I prepare for classes to resume on Tuesday, but rather than leg this blag totally languish, it's time to blearily update once more! After the jump: we're gonna talk a little bit Ravenna, a little bit Milan, a little bit scattered Bologna time - basically all the fugue state Italian time that led up to my arrival in Switzerland, which we will be discussing later and not today thank you very much. First, pre-jump: a little video of mostly Ravenna and Milan for a hot second!
