I am posting to the blog for the first time in over a year–and I promise never to use the third person on a title again. The headline is true, however: I’m going to Italy for six weeks this summer, starting about twenty minutes from now. I am currently sitting in Terminal C of the Bush Intercontinental Airport hammering out this post before the boarding period is over and my plane departs for Rome. It has finally hit me: I’m actually going to Europe!

For those interested, I will be uploading photos and blog entries periodically. They could quite possibly feature all manner of hedonism and overindulgence… or there could simply be an abundance of photos of pretty buildings. Either way, come take a look and make me feel happy watching my page views rise.

Andrò a Roma!
