“Travel is worthwhile. It minimizes one’s ignorance.”—Unknown
So, here is to the start of a journey. A journey long anticipated, desired, prepared for, and deserved. Here’s to getting a chance to taste "la dolce vita" where its history began. To excitement, adventure, knowledge and pleasure. That I may experience something unforgettable in the magical landscapes and ancient paved streets of Italia.
I guess I am searching for my life’s purpose, and want Italy to help me uncover what I truly want for my future. I have so many unanswered questions about what I should do when I return to “reality”. Is the foreign service for me? Is Tuscany my soul’s land--the place I should spend my life? Do I pursue travel writing as a career, or settle for annual reports? I’ll have a mere 16 weeks to diligently forge a plan for myself.
All I can do is travel in good faith and hope I will find my way.
