Catanzaro

Alright, so some good things happened this week including a nice move to

a new city but I guess we will talk about my last couple of days in

Pescara. Well, last PDAY we went to Rome and played soccer which was

swag. I wasn't on my "A-Game" (I don't really have one for soccer) but

it was still way fun. It was kinda funny seeing all the Army guys at

all the metro stops. Well, maybe not funny but it shows that Rome is

prepping for the potential terrorist attacks and stuff. It's a good time.

Anyways, on Tuesday we had our district meeting and everything. It was

fun because we made pancakes and I love pancakes and we put chocolate

in the pancakes so I like that. Then Wednesday we went to Rome and

then Thursday morning I caught a train to my new city. Catanzaro.

So my new city is in the foot part of southern Italy. It's warmer here

than it was in Pescara. It's not as big though. So after a nice long

train ride down I finally made it to my new city. My new comp is

Anziano Covalt and he is from San Diego. He doesn't know how to surf

which I guess isn't a requirement to living down here. The church here

is small though. We are in a small branch of about 15 members in the

only District in Italy. It is definitely different than what I am used

to because I've always been in big high functioning Wards since I've

been on the mission so this is definitely something different but I'm

excited. I'm sure I will become really close to all the members here

which is definitely something I missed in Pescara. But it's cool.

Catanzaro is in the Calabria region of Italy. They eat a lot of

"spicy" food here. I love spicy food so I mean in the end I think I'll

be fine.

In other news I bought a Catanzaro soccer kit. They are like

comparable to a minor league team in America so it's not that cool but

idk I gotta "put on for my city." Also, there is a pizza place

literally below our house that gives us half off pizza. €2.50 for any

pizza we want is what I call a "dope deal." Also I love pizza so it's

swag. Anyways. Hope y'all have a good week. God is good. Love ya! Ciao

ciao
