First day of class! Walked EVERYWHERE. Today's topic: Ancient Edges. We started at the Vatican, then made our way to San Pietro in Montero (part of the Spanish Royal Acadamy) and saw Bramante's Tempietto, Santa Maria in Trastevere, Santa Maria in Cosmodin, walked UP the Aventine Hill and saw Basilica di Santa Sabina and Piranesi's peep hole (sounds dirty hahahaha) that frames the dome of the Vatican.
In the middle of this craziness, we had lunch at this small place in Trastevere [something or another Clood]. I had spaghetti vongole (clam spaghetti ...and no, not clam sauce, actual clams in my spaghetti). It was AMAZING. It's not heavy at all. It's basically clams [still in the shell], sauteed with garlic in olive oil and spaghetti noodles. Funny story about how I found about this dish...I learned of this dish from watching "Pasta," a Korean drama about a Chef and this girl who wants to be a chef working in an Italian restaurant in Seoul.
Housing news: the management have seemed to have fixed the broken shower, given us more fans and changed the router for the internet. Internet works a little bit better.
