A new year, a new journey...

Salve! Mi chiamo Caitlin Campbell and I am a junior Elementary Education and Special Education major at Elon. As I prepare to ring in the New Year, I am also preparing for our course in Italy, and I wanted to take the time to introduce myself and share my thoughts on the adventure ahead. I am getting so excited for this journey and cannot believe that we leave in merely two days! Like so many of my classmates, I have been busily packing (and unpacking... and packing again) to prepare for our time abroad. It is amazing to think that in just a few days, we will be walking the streets of Rome and learning about its vast history in person. I hope that you will continue to follow us and learn with us on our journey. We are incredibly lucky to be able to start 2012 in Italy and we wish everyone a very Happy New Year!

A presto!

Ciao tutti!  Lynn and I are meeting to go over our course itinerary and schedule, gather maps and first aid supplies, and do all things associated with getting ready to go to Italy!  We hope you are getting excited too and that you'll start checking the blog for course updates and sending the link to family and friends who want to follow us while we are in Italy.  We've been getting great questions about the brochures, keep those coming, and we are excited to see you all in a few days.

A presto...
