My final italian mountain pass 04/08/2013

Today was pretty uneventful, mostly driving but I did manage to find a place to swim! I'm sleeping next to a dam tonight with a few other campers in an open lot which seems to have been procured by free sleepers. I am finally clean after being able to swim! There was a crazy storm about 30 minutes ago which has now cleared to a lovely sunset, my last sunset on the road for a while. Now that I'm heading back to society I'm a bit sad. Life on the road can be lonely but its beautiful and full of surprises. You never know where you're gonna end up!

Grappa coffee anyone? 02/08/2013

I'm sitting at a beautiful view point, at just over 3000m which I hiked up with a crazy italian man who only speaks italian and who I couldn't understand at all! Then when we got to the top he gave me grappa spiked coffee and told me a whole lot of other things in italian that I couldn't understand. What a great country!
