I am a 4th year architecture student at Kansas State University.  I just finished the most ridiculous semester of my life, so I thought I would go to study in Italy for a semester. I am going to be staying in Castiglion Fiorentino which is in the heart of  Tuscany, about 3 hours north of Rome and an hour and a  1/2 south of Florence.  Upon my return I will  have one more year of school before I Graduate with my Master’s Degree in Architecture. I am not sure where that will take me, but I am ready to go.

I am ready for an adventure.  2009 was a year of almost’s. 2010 is my year of doing. There will be Places to see. Shenanigans to be had. Laughs to be heard.  Food to be consumed. I will leave you to ponder my current favorite quote:

OLE to you none the less,
OLE to you, just for having
the shear human love and
stubbornness to keep showing up.
