Game Plan:

Here's the plan, and what I am pretty sure will happen due to the fact it's only 10 sweet short days away!

I am moving to Italy to teach English.  I will be living in Pisa, in Tuscany, (please do think of the chick flicks when you think of me,) and enjoying a pretty great job.

As of recent, I have been hired to work with the Wallstreet Institue in Pisa, to be the full time English teacher.  I will be teaching adults, which freaks me out slightly, but I will be in Italia, so how in God's name can I complain.

I have been really blessed in many ways, including how everything is working out for the best.  I received an apartment, that I can move into immediately, I will make enough soldi to live on and travel.  I will have a contract of a complete year, which means I will not be home until next June.  And, I have a rather attractive man following me there only 5 short weeks later.

Last year when I found out I had dual citizenship in Germany, I realized how many possibilities I have.  I graduate in 7 days and leave in 10.  I have a slight amount of pride in what I have accomplished, that I believe deserves to be there.

So the big question has been, "Aren't you scared to live in a foreign country?"
My answer...No.  I elated!  The opportunity there is thrilling, the portion I am nervous about is leaving my loved ones behind.  So much can change in a year, and I really don't want to miss it.  I will keep up with everyone as much as I can, but being a 9 hour plane ride away, makes it slightly more difficult.

So the plan for this blog is to update it as much as a I can, mainly to brag about my adventures, but also just to keep everyone in the loop.  Maybe some can live vicariously through me.

And now, for what everyone has been wondering: On May 22nd at 6:30am I fly out of Pittsburgh, (to Baltimore, to New York, to London, and then to Pisa.)
