So about this funny Lil thing…

I’m Lily and I’ve been on this Earth for 20 years and I can tell you a few things that are undoubtedly true: your framily (friends+family) will keep your soul afloat, song lyrics can rock your heart, Iowa has a lot of corn-y people that will make you smile and being brave is crucial for living. So with that said this is me being brave. This is me boarding a plane to take me to another continent. This is me meeting new people, absorbing a new culture and living in Italy for 5 months. This is me being brave by myself. Follow my adventure here! AND  of course thank you to every single one of you reading this because your desire to know what I am doing, how I am doing and where I am doing it, means the world to me. All my love to you. So let this funny Lil adventure begin.

    Hi, Lil granddaughter! Being brave does mean facing challenges, but also you can remember you are never alone….our words and hearts are with you, as well as a spirit that reminds you to be aware of all the life around you and within you. You can call it gratitude and love (which we always send your way!) Grandma
