I'm one of those people who gets excited to open up a brand new notebook- fresh, clean pages just waiting to be filled with countless bits of information. One can only imagine how that feeling translates over to starting a new blog. This isn't just any old 'new blog' however. This is the space that will eventually be filled with every detail of my time in Rome, and the one thing aside from pictures that I will be able to look back on and remember how I spent my time abroad.
As I sit at my desk at work, I wish more than anything that I could see this blog finished right now in front of me. I want to read where I went, who I met, and what I discovered while in Rome. I have to tell myself to just be patient, because soon enough I'll be doing just that and wishing I was back in Italy.
I have a little over a month until I leave, and have plenty to do before take-off. I've spent my summer working two jobs tirelessly, and have just started to go through my things seeing what I need, what I don't need, and what I really need to get moving on. As much as I want this next month to fly by, I also want to enjoy it. I want to spend as much time with my family as possible, and see as many people as I can before I head out. And packing- lets not get started on that topic...
If anyone has some good tips for a first-time traveler, send them my way!
Grazie!
