Today is the day

Today is the day I have been waiting for...the day I leave for Florence. I am both excited and nervous for the upcoming months. I am excited about experiencing the Italian culture and trying different foods. However, I am nervous about leaving the comfort of American and Santa Clara University behind. I will be thrown into new situations and I am nervous about staying with a home stay family. Even though I am nervous, I believe that I will have a great semester. I will not only have a blast and see some amazing new places. but I will learn a lot and get to experience a culture very different than my own. And for that I feel truly blessed. I feel extremely lucky to have the opportunity to study abroad and want to thank my parents for helping my dream to study in Florence a reality.

At 2:20pm today, I will board the plane to Florence and my adventures will begin. I am ready for a great semester. A semester full of traveling, trying new foods, learning and experiencing Europe.

Ciao for now!
