Start of Week Three

7/7/2019

Salvete omnes!

Today was another relaxing Sunday with a twist. After the usual morning of sleeping in and playing games (with a healthy side of the Women's World Cup game), we had classes in the afternoon. Following classes and dinner, we watched the movie Black Orpheus, a modern take on the story of Orpheus set in Rio De Janeiro.

Another session of VoluiFolium was convened as we look to our final week that's sure to be the busiest and fastest yet. We'll be sure to keep you updated with all the goings-on.

Valete,
HJ & HH
