ABOUT ME

I am a 3rd year university student who will be living in Roma agosto-dicembre 2009. I am looking forward to traveling throughout Italy & surrounding countries, improving my Italian, feeding my appetite for fabulous Italian cuisine [&hopefully, practicing culinary skills along the way] &meeting many new people.

I love my white boxer pup Rupert, reading, recreational eating, fresh seafood, painting &the Tonight Show with Conan O'brien.
