I have returned!

I am alive and safely back in Rome. I survived, generally unharmed. There's much to tell so check back because I will try to explain this crazy adventure. It'll be hard to do though. Also, this trip has basically ruined me forever because now I only want to do awesome things. I have to keep one-upping myself. What am I going to do for spring break next year after riding camels in the Sahara this year? I'm thinking swimming with sharks. Anyway, be ready for excellent stories.
