Today's the day!

It is officially January 24th, the day I depart for Rome. I will be spending approximately 4 months studying in Rome at Lorenzo de' Medici. I have spent the past few days trying to fit my life in 2 suitcases. Although it was very difficult and I will most likely be paying some overweight fees, I successfully fit 4 months' worth of clothes, shoes, and other necessities in my new lightweight spinner luggage. The nerves are beginning to kick in...I don't speak Italian, I don't know my future roommates, and well...I'm going to be living in a foreign country for 4 months. Nevertheless I am extremely excited and anxious to arrive in Rome and begin the adventure! Ciao!
