I messed up my first correction so I will do another:

Lost in Venezia

My brother Manuel was taking what we call a year off from his major. It was not a gap year, like Americans would say, but an Erasmus scholarship program, which in terms of leisure is pretty much the same... only one period.

:) come in to continue reading! New sentence so you need to capitalize the first letter. Join me to continue reading or click here to continue reading. The smiley indicates a joke usually so I'm not sure what it is referring to here.

Maybe I should have you, Carmen, correct MY writing instead of me correcting yours! 

Sorry about the previous mistakes.
