Hi everyone!:)It is Wednesday afternoon here and I can not possibly be more excited because my parents are leaving for the airport with Jimmy and Rosaria RIGHT NOW! :) I just got finished skyping with them and they were headed out the door. Tomorrow at about this time we will all be meeting up together! We will be spending the weekend in Rome, coming back to Florence for a couple of days and then flying to Sicily to spend Wednesday-Sunday there visiting Sortino's...

I have never been more exhausted finally being back in Florence and I am greatly looking forward to having a quiet weekend filled with naps, homework and local sightseeing.We arrived in Munich, Germany very early on Friday morning. We took an overnight train from Florence to Munich (Which was 8.5 hours! Awful!) Luckily, we wer...

The school had organized for all of the fashion students to partake in a cooking class about an hour outside of Florence in Lucca at a small villa that is a Bed and Breakfast. Monday was my day to attend, along with twenty of my other classmates. The place in Lucca was beautiful! I felt like I was at the place that they show on the front of the Olive Garden menu's! Haha :) After learning a little about the differ...
