The Beginning of Lasts

So today was my last day at work... 

(mega sad face)

           For those of you who don't know I work at Busch Gardens Williamsburg in Italy in a shop called "Artisans of Italy", which is the best shop if I have a say. I worked with wonderful team members and also two wonderful Italian Artisans, Nino and Toni. 

So shout out to Karen, Mrs. Jean, Marie, Becca, Alicia, Donna, Michelle, Evan, Catherine, Ray, Nino, Toni, and Tracy. 
One of my supervisors, Alicia made me these brownies it's so adorable, I love it! I'm so grateful to have worked with these amazing people.

Thank you guys for making my time in #ItalySquad amazing! I will be sure to visit when I return!

Here are pictures from tonight that we took <3 They describe us perfectly

(Alicia, I, Marie, and Evan)

 At my first job at Chuck E Cheese, I loved a few I worked with but most really made me dread having to work with them. At Busch I look forward to going to work and and am actually happy to go.

I learned a lot working in the shop. I've met wonderful people.

 This is just the first of my goodbye's and lasts. 

From now until I leave I will be writing a blog post documenting the last of days here in the USA. I want to thank everyone who has supported me and donated to help send me to Finland. This is an amazing opportunity that I am grateful to have.

Now is the time for those who are thinking about becoming exchange students to start put it in action (espically if you plan to go with Rotary). Don't keep simple things from keeping you from going. We are only young once and if we don't get out there and explore now, we might never.

If you have any questions please email me! I would love to answer any questions! So shoot me a message on Facebook, Tumblr, Email, Twitter, or Instagram. I would be more than happy to help.
