Several months ago I made the decision to apply to a study abroad program in Paderno del Grappa, Italy and on February 15th I was accepted!! I have been counting down until the day I leave and, as of right now, I am about three months away from my departure! I am really looking forward to the various experiences I will have in Europe, but along with all the excitement I am feeling comes some hesitation. I know that I am going to be missing out on a lot of things here in Fayetteville, but I truly feel like right now is probably the best time for me to get away and I know I am going to have the time of my life! I wont get to see how our new football coach does this fall, but at least I wont be missing any baseball... I might not get to have the normal Thanksgiving meal, but I am sure they will make up for it somehow... the list of things I have been thinking about missing could go on and on, but I know that for each of them there is something even more amazing that I will get to experience while I am away in Europe.....
This is a picture of Mt. Grappa from a dorm room... Once I am in Italy, I will post lots and lots of my pictures on here but figured this would be a good start.
