t-4 days

Benvenuto a mi spaghetti blog!

Save this link and visit it often! Here is where I'll be updating the homeland on my semester which I will be studying (yes, some work is in fact involved) in Florence, Italy. I'll be posting what I've done along with some pictures so you can all experience it with me. Please stay in touch and e-mail me often! (jesgulutz@gmail.com)

It's now Sunday morning and I just made a vow to my mom that I would begin to undertake the packing mission today. I'm not too worried, my flat comes fully furnished, down to the linens and all. All I really need are my clothes and the few essentials (pictures, ipod and possibly something stuffed to embrace in moments of need).

As for my state of mind-the big question everyone keeps asking: I'm a little nervous about how not nervous I am. I'm looking at this as an adventure, fortunately all of the e-mails I've been receiving about what to bring/what to do once I'm there/where things are/etc have provided me with a great peace of mind. I think that means I've done all my homwork and I'm ready for an adventure!

Italy, here I come! [well, thursday at 6:30pm...]
