Blog Beginnings

Ciao Tutti,

As many of you know, I have been blessed with the opportunity to study abroad in Florence, Italy this Spring 2011 semester. I have been dreaming of visiting Italy since I was 7 and that dream is finally coming true.  Since I will be in Italia for a little more than 100 days, I figured I should share my adventures at your leisure rather than coming back and bombarding you with endless hours of stories.

A few things on my bucket list for this experience:

• learn how to cook delicious Italian Food
• be cultured on Italian wines
• visit the Vatican (every good Catholic should, right? I think so)
• attend Carnevale >>> Italy's month long version Mardi Gras, except BETTER!!!
• become fluent in Italian

The list goes on and on.  (not in any particular order of course)
I will be studying at Lorenzo Di Medici International Institute.  LDM does not have classes on Fridays and I managed to not have class on Mondays either.  Hopefully, it works to my advantage.  I will miss you all tons and I hope you enjoy looking at my Italy4Veronica Blog.  CIAO CIAO!

Feel free to live vicariously through my blog :)
