The time has come, today I have to fly back to Italy (sigh) and I thought there's no better way to say thank you to all the people that I met during the last 3 months in the US than writing the last post of my blog in English. It's been just 3 months, but I have so many memories and I have learnt so many things about the country, that it feels like I've lived here for almost a year. Thank you to my roommates Brae and Todd, to my colleagues at Select Italy, to all my American/Italian friends in Chicago, to Bill in NY and Zeke in MN. I wish I could have given a big hug to everybody before leaving, but time runs and I didn't make it. I will always remember my first American dream. I say "first" because nothing's over, this was just the beginning of my dream and I will do my best to come back on vacation while being done with my last year at university. What else can I say? Keep in touch (FB forever) and I think I will use my blog to keep you updated since many of you liked it. Remember that you have an Italian friend overseas that cannot wait for next time to meet. Love you all and God bless America! Matt

Minnesotan Weekend
Breve aggiornamento prima del penultimo weekend americano: domani sera dopo il lavoro prenderò l'aereo per Minneapolis dove starò tutto il weekend per visitare la città e St. Paul, la capitale del Minnesota. Probabilmente quasi nessuno saprà nulla sulle Twin Cities perchè non rientrano nelle mete ultra turistiche a livello mondiale, ma vi consiglio per farvi un'idea di usare Wikipedia e Google Images...quando tornerò domenica notte vi saprò dire ancora di più.Le energie stanno cominciando a scarseggiare tra lavoro e vita al di fuori dell'ufficio, ma manca ormai solamente una settimana al rientro, per cui....PARTY ON!!!!!!!!!!!

Last two weeks in town
Mancano solo due settimane al ritorno in Italia e ho ancora un po' di cose da fare qui a Chicago. Martedì sera ultima partita dei Cubs al Wrigley Field contro San Diego, stavolta non in piccionaia e spendendo meno dell'altra volta. Il prossimo weekend ultimo viaggio in terra americana verso il Minnesota, precisamente a Minneapolis e St. Paul (le cosiddette Twin Cities). Nel bel mezzo di tutto ciò, mille cose da comprare per il cambio vantaggioso euro-dollaro (oltre a prezzi più bassi) e varie altre cose. Mi dispiace dover lasciare la mia vita americana dopo essermi abituato a moltissime cose nuove che in Italia arriveranno probabilmente nel 2050, per cui nel primo periodo di ritorno sarà necessario un riadattamento alla "dolce vita" (che non so cosa abbia di dolce a parte il cibo, però va be...). Questo weekend c'è anche l'Air show, quindi Chicago si è trasformata in aeroporto gigante con caccia e aerei che continuano a passare in cielo. Per informazione: la foto non l'ho scattata io.
