three summers ago i went backpacking through italy (with jane). we hopped from rome, to florence, to pizza, to vernazza, to venice. this week i pulled out all of my pictures with the intention of scrapbooking them. while that has not happened i have loved getting lost in the images.
i remember standing on the beach in vernazza recognizing what happiness really was. we had no cell phones, no facebook, no internet. just italy and each other. and some hunky italian men.
it was a truly magnificent and magical time. if i could give any advice to anyone, it would be to travel. go with your friends. take out a loan if you have to! that is what i did and i have never regretted it. not for one second.
xoxo.

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, what a dream!
ReplyDeleteToday especially, these photos are killing me with jealousy! I wish I hadn't focused on my money shortage so much when I was in college and just did something like this.
ReplyDeleteI went to BYU Hawaii with Ambree. What a small Mormon world ;)
