After a long absence from posting on my blog, I am eager to update you all on my latest engagements... Yes! I'm at it again... traveling of course! This time, not for medical mission work, though, I desire to return to Haiti again in the late fall or early winter. I am currently enrolled in a 1 month study abroad program at Villa Aurora in Florence Italy through the Adventist College Abroad. See their website: http://aca-noborders.com/
(For clarification, I am not a part of the Adventist church, and don't have plans to join either. Regardless, I have felt rather welcomed by the school and have enjoyed getting to know the students and staff here.)
Overall, this program is serving as an avenue to see and experience Italy, something that I have desired to do for some time now. I have no distinct purpose in studying Italian besides my love for languages, and am enjoying the cultural and art history lessons as a source of enrichment! I am thankful for this opportunity to step away, and experience one of the most beautiful countries in the world, so rich in history, natural beauty, friendly natives, and amazing food! I look forward to bringing you along on my adventures here in Italy and other places I plan to visit (I will not disclose them now to add to the suspense for some of you...)
Yes, I left my nursing hat on the shelf for a couple months in order to do this, and traded it in for a Bedouin tent (aka. my huge red suitcase) in order to take part in this adventure. My prayer is that, wherever I go, the Lord would use me as His ambassador! Thank you for reading this and for thinking of me in your prayers!
