First Post

So this is the blog that I'll be utilizing starting in January when I begin my adventure in Rome, and I'll be updating it fairly constantly throughout the semester and into May. I'm going to post it on my Facebook and email it out to my family members, however if you know of anyone that would be interested in following my posts, please send this link to them; I would like to share with as many people as possible. The slideshow at the bottom is inactive as of now, but once I start taking pictures I can upload them right onto an online album which will feed directly to this slideshow. Also, my pictures will be available online.

I've never created and updated my own blog before, so I hope that it is fairly organized and user friendly. I'll be keeping everyone up to date on my studies, my trips, my stories, and my trials, and I would always love to hear your comments.

Once again, I thank everyone for taking a genuine interest in this blog as well as my travels, and hopefully through this medium we can feel a little more connected during our long span apart. I'll be posting some information later about the school I'll be attending and what the study abroad process has looked like so far during my preparation stage! See ya!
