Greetings from Italy!

Picture from Spello. I took the picture myself.

Italy has been treating me well. I am having an internship at the Hospital of Perugia and during free time I have been discovering Perugia and the beautiful little towns and Cities around it.
I work at the Urology department and it is exiting to learn more about the regular pre- and postoperative work with surgery patients. My tutor nurses are very nice and they teach me Italian along the working hours. We have a great athmosphere at our department and I felt welcome from the very first day.

The first picture is taken in a city called Spello. I spent a gorgeous Saturday discovering the beautiful streets of it. I also forgot that siesta is a real and actually occuring thing especially in the smaller cities of Italy during the days, so insted of eating in a restourant as planned I prepared myself a pasta in a camper van that me and my friend lived in for the first part of the trip.
Food is absolutely delicious. I have deeply fallen in love with the Extra Virgin Olive Oils that the area of Umbria has to offer, for example.
Sun has been shining warmly during the autumn and it warms my heart especially when knowing that in Finland it is getting quite dark and cold.

Photos taken from the surrounding areas of Perugia.Self made pizza!

The best risotto I have eaten in my life so far. We prepared this pizza with my friends in a self built oven. It was delicious!

 

Italy is farely known of its beautiful old stone cities and narrow streets. These photos are taken in Solomeo (street photo with flowers) and Perugia.

Perugia is an old City built on top of a hill located in the area of Umbria. I love wondering around the narrow streets and finding small putiques and view spots.

 

Solomeno is a small city about 20 minutes drive from Perugia.

I warmly recommend visiting Perugia if you are planning a trip to Italy. People are very kind and it is filled with culture, delicious food and beautiful nature.

Arrivederci tutti!
