Autumn is here and I looooooove the colors it has brought with it






 I had a visit from Taylor

So I took a day trio to Bologna and hung out with a bunch of English people, by the end of the day I wanted to talk in an accent

 Just a part of the most popular fountain in Bologna
 Bologna is the city of towers and this tower we chose to climb (the taller one)
