My apartment still isn’t ready but I had to leave the temporary place, so after several weeks away, I am back at the hotel my Mom and I first stayed in when we arrived in Lugano August 9. We stayed for three weeks, so these people are like family. Mufasa is very confused when we don’t go into room #53. He thinks it’s home.
The neighborhood, I think, is my favorite in Lugano. It’s called Castagnola and is smack dab on the lake. It’s tropical and feels far away from the hustle of the city, even though it’s only about two minutes by car into the center of town. I tried to get an apartment here, but took the one up nearer to school instead. One day maybe I’ll try to live here…
