Thank You Roma

Before I write about the amazing time I had in Florence. (Which will probably be finished by the time I get to the US) I wanted to just say a Thank You...to my adopted city. Roma.

On my last night here, I am sitting in my hotel waiting to go have dinner, the pasta and wine that I have become so accustomed to, and I can't help but think about all the amazing time I have had in this city, the friends that I have made, and the person I have become.

And that is why I want to thank you Roma. You brought be back. I was struggling to be excited about life at my school until I found you. You have brought back the bubbly person that I was but lost for over a year. I feel different, in the best way possible. I feel like renewed soul, happy once again. You made me this happy. I will forever be grateful.

As I listen to Taylor Swift's song "Long Live" I love the line about remembering "The night you danced like you know our lives would never be the same." That was our End of the Year Banquet. I knew that I would never forget these people, forget this city that has brought be so much.

I have learned so much here, about myself, the people who affect me, and the world. 

Words can not express my gratitude.

Thank You Roma.
