My name is Natalie and I am entering my junior year at Loyola Chicago. This fall semester, I am studying abroad in Rome, Italy at Loyola's John Felice Rome Center.

My name is Natalie and I am entering my junior year at Loyola Chicago. This fall semester, I am studying abroad in Rome, Italy at Loyola's John Felice Rome Center. I speak hardly any Italian, but I'm counting on my 6 years of Spanish and my semester of Latin to help me out a bit as I tackle Italian 101. This blog is so my friends and family can keep up with what I'm up too, since I'm terrible at emailing and will probably be too busy to call very frequently! Short list of countries I plan on/hope to be visiting: Germany (Berlin and maybe Munich for Oktoberfest), France (Paris), Greece, Spain, Ireland (Galway), Switzerland (Zurich or Geneva) and Amsterdam. Also I am REEEEALLY hoping to make it to Africa while I'm here, either to North Africa to visit Tunisia and Morocco, or South Africa and visit my friend Will. No matter what, I'm counting on a fabulous journey.
