"quando sei lontana sogno all'orizzonte e mancare le parole...time to say good-bye...paesi che non ho mai veduto e vissuto con te adesso s li vivro...con te partiro..."
It Is our time to say good-bye to Hotel Moderno, our home for a significant portion of our stay in Italy. We will always appreciate how you welcomed us and made us feel as though we were not just staying at any hotel, but with an Italian family instead. Each and every day the staff members were hospitable, friendly, accommodating and always went out of their way to ensure we were taken care of. Thank you to Riccardo, PierLuigi and Liliana for working behind the scenes to make our visit smooth running and genuinely comfortable. When we met Moira on our first day we knew we were in good hands because she embraced us with enthusiasm and excellent customer service! Paolo was always diligent, respectful and helpful if there was ever a need. Thank you for taking care of the details.
To the chef, we send you our applause for preparing with care a great variety of dishes that were healthy and delicious (giving us a hint of that cucina Toscana). Bravo! The waiters were phenomenal! Grazie to Gabriele who would greet us with his wonderful flair each morning, "Buon giorno! Cafe! Pardon! Signoria Lei!" Thank you to Luigi who meticulously tended to the details and always asked if we wanted seconds. Your efforts never went by unnoticed. Thank you to Marco who made every task seem effortless and was never impossible to do. If ever we asked him for something he would always respond, "ma come no? certo...of course."
As mentioned, the staff at this hotel treated us like family. Little did we know that they were family! Marco is related to Ms. Meschino...paesani! Un mondo piccolo!
To the cleaning staff who impeccably tended to our rooms each day and kept everything clean and refreshed. We will definitely miss how our bedsheets were so perfectly crisp and smooth...and those towels...ahhh!
We thank you so much for allowing us to learn, paint, sketch, study, read, write exams and socialize in your dining hall, lobby, garden and living room area. Never once making us feel that our group was in the way but instead you appreciated the viva and energy that only a group of "ragazze" could bring!
Hotel Moderno, "thank you" from all of and if by chance we missed anyone to thank please send them our appreciation!
Our last night in Siena came with a great SURPRISE! Teresa our Italian nonna and exceptional tour guide came to travel with us to Roma! She entered our garden dinner area with a great round of applause!
Ms. Rocca spoke to the group and presented each student with a special momento as a token of appreciation on behalf of herself, Ms. Battista, Ms. Augustynek, Ms. Meschino and supervisors, Gary, Luca and Michael. It was a mini 2016 calendar that displays Italy. We thought it would be a sentimental way to enjoy memories of Italy every day for every month of the upcoming year! Students were invited to sign eachother' calendars as a keepsake!
We enjoyed our last evening in the campo under an unforgettable indigo sky!
We packed our luggages with sadness and excitement! Pronto per Roma!
Our luggages by the door this morning ready for our departure to Roma.
Right to the very end, Gabriele our waiter, helped us load heavy luggages full of memories onto our bus and stepped inside to say "ciao and buon viaggio!" Now that is the kind of class, care, respect and goodwill we were sent off with! Ciao tutti! Grazie Hotel Moderno!
Roma here we come!
