Disneyworld Syndrome
I fear I will soon confirm the stereotype of stupid Americans because all I seem to be able to do is stare in wonder and awe. I have only been in Florence for one full day and am already in love. This city holds a romance and a magic that no American city could hope to achieve. At orientation this morning, we were warned that Americans can suffer from the "Disneywold syndrome," but in my case I hope it never wears off. I haven't even visited any of the ...

For the first time, I realized how blessed I am to be studying in Italy for the sake that I will have so many opportunities to experience my faith in a way that most people can't even imagine.
