Ciao!

Ciao Tutti! The Italian adventure begins! For those of you who are fans of "Eat. Pray. Love.," I became inspired for this blog's title by the author's favorite italian word, "Attraversiamo," and I must say, I love it as well. This word means "we cross" or "let's cross over." So I thought this was appropriate seeing as I'm about to transition into a completely opposite lifestyle from what I have lived throughout my 22 years. As an American who is used to living life in the fast lane, too much to do, not enough time, fast food and always wanting more sleep, this "crossing over" to Italian culture is about to be a 180 degree turn from all of that. Leisurely days, authentic homemade food, and afternoon naps are the way of the Italians, and I must say I could not be more excited to "cross over." So I hope you all enjoy sharing this journey with me, I love you all. Attraversiamo to Tuscania, Italy!
