Heya Vanize,

first; I wanted to say that you have a nice signature ,
but I've something (hopefully) usefull for you as well... I don't know when you will be travelling, but when I travelled through Italy I had a wonderful time thanks to [Old link], so maybe she is in for some spinning...

Hey hey Vanize - I just came back from pretty much the reverse of that trip!
Bologna, Florence, Elba (Beautiful place - if you've got a couple of days - Camping Scagliri is lovely, and go to Marciana and and up the cable car to Mt. Calpanne), Sienna and Rome - stunning.

DIdn't see anyone spinning at all mind you

yupz, spinning is not very popular in Ialy, I heard from a girl in Milano, but she didn't respond... But in Rome there was a whole group (from/with Stregai), and in Napoli there was 1 girl who spinned... But that was it, most people never had seen it before (which was very good for busking in Sienna )...

you made kinda the same trip as I did, i only skipped Bologna and Elba, but went to Livorno, Sorrento and Milano.. I really miss Rome and the icecream btw

Prato is right outside of Florence and there is a whole bunch of us here...in fact we teach it in the local schools...and do workshops all over italy ...

Hey

Telpeva Isil> I had a great time too!
how are you? haven't heard from you for a while. I'm back in Rome now, studying again
ok, i reckon my last email wasn't a most interesting one, but hope you'll get back to that... or maybe i'll write you about the Bristol juggling convention - just great!

Vanize> I'm sorry, I came back to Rome too late to meet you. hope you had a good time anyway. yup, there aren't poi workshops/meetings here, unfortunately (i'm working to start something up actually), but there are spinners! you only have to know where to go. and guess that's exactly the same everywhere. next time maybe.

ciaociao
