On the walk from the apartment to the school, you can see the Duomo. It’s a sight to behold.
アパートから学校まで歩く途中にドゥオモが見えます。圧巻。

Jewelry making for the first time in my life. First, I learned how to use a thread saw, and then I started making rings. I cut a brass plate, sanded it, and made a pattern on it. Finally, the ring is bent and rounded!
人生初のジュエリーメイキング。まずは糸鋸の使い方を学び、その後さっそくリング作りに。真鍮の板を切って、やすりで削って、模様をつけて。最後に曲げて丸めたら完成！

On the second day, we went to a jewelry store to buy sterling silver for the next piece.
2日目は次なる作品のために純銀を買いに宝石店へ。

銀でのリング作り。板同士をしっかり溶接します。

Even the smallest scratch is polished well, and a beautiful shiny silver ring is completed.
細かい傷もしっかり磨いて、きれいに光るシルバーのリングが完成。

Between classes, it is becoming a tradition to have a latte at the cafe across the street.
授業の合間には、向かいのカフェでラテを飲むのが恒例となりつつあります。

For the next week’s piece, I melt down the sterling silver I bought and make it into a sheet. Sweat is pouring off me from the heat.
次週の作品のために、買った純銀を溶かして板状にします。暑さで汗が流れ落ちます。

In the evening, we go to a restaurant we found on our walk. The interior is lovely and the waiters are friendly.
夜は散策途中で見つけたレストランに。内装も素敵で店員さんも優しい人が多いです。

Art Visit takes us to Piazzale Michelangelo. It is located on top of a small hill, so you can see the city of Florence. It was very beautiful at sunset.
Art Visitではミケランジェロ広場へ。小高い丘の上にあるため、フィレンツェの街並みが望めます。夕暮れ時でとても綺麗でした。

For Cultural Activity, we took a 2-hour train ride to Castiglioncello. The temperature was about 5 degrees Celsius lower than Florence, and the sea breeze made it a very pleasant place. I would like to visit there again.
Cultural Activityは電車で約2時間かけてCastiglioncello（カスティリョンチェッロ）に。フィレンツェよりも約5℃も気温が低く、海風もありとても気持ちのいい場所でした。また自分でも行ってみたいです。
