One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I saw my first opera in the historic Arena Di Verona in Italy. I'm a complete geek, so I purchased an English translation of the production (Carmen) and spent the entire day reading alfresco!
Later that evening, I searched my backpack for the most refined flip flops I could find and wondered whether I would be bored during the production. When I arrived, I was amazed by the open air theatre and absolutely swept away in the costume and drama of Carmen. I'll never forget that day.
