Italian Olive Harvest and an Old Town

Today, my roommates and I traveled about forty-five minutes, by train, to the small town of Mazzano Romano. There we helped a teacher at the school harvest her olives. We helped rake about 29 olive trees of their 37. It is tedious work, but we all had a blast! They treated us to a massive lunch with a local homemade soup, bread, wine, sausage, and bruschetta.

we toasted the seeds later

Tonight we are hoping to find a Halloween Party or something fun to do...more on that later.

Ciao for now,
