italy in a month.

sicilian proverb sais:

whoever waits for time to pass loses time.

traveling italy soon. going alone. making main stops in milan, venice, cinque terre, florence, siena, naples, amalfi coast, salerno, and rome. i think i'm more excited than an average person going to europe. i'm 100% italian. mothers side from sicily and fathers side from abruzzo and naples. growing up in a family who loves their culture and lifestyle, it's such a reward going to the place where my roots are at. however the most important thing to me and the main reason why this means so much to me is that i will be there for my grandmothers birthday. my grandmother passed away may 2nd 2008 and all she wanted me to do my entire life was to visit italy and spend time where our family was originally from. i will be there for her birthday. can't ask for anything more xo
