Summer Prospects

If you all remember our first few hellish months in Italy, you will recall the complete and utter shut-down of Rome. You probably recall our anxiety in not even being able to apply for jobs until September because most business are at a standstill in August as everyone leaves the city for vacation. Well this year, we are determined to be prepared!

About two weeks ago we sent off applications to an English summer camp for kids in Austria, and today we received notice that we are being granted interviews!! We are extremely excited, because if we can land these jobs (which we have great confidence that we will) it will ensure that we are working through the month of August while our school is closed for holiday. Not only that, but we'll be spending the month is gorgeous Austria, travelling with the kids, playing tennis and having a great time. What better way to escape the dreadful heat of Rome and make money at the same time?

So, the interviews are next week, and hopefully we will know shortly after that if we will be given the jobs. Thank you to all of you out there (you know who you are) who helped us get together all of the little bits and peices we needed for our application. We could not have done it without you! And wish us luck in our interviews next week!
