Welcome to Pace Fuori!
This blog (my first) will document my activities in the beautiful city of Siena, Italy. For one month, I will be immersed in a painting + drawing curriculum with some classmates from Seattle University, as well as engaging with a foreign culture. I look forward to providing you with blurbs, photos (both of Italy and of what I will be creating), and anything else worth sharing more often than not.
As I type this, I have just woken up from one of my notorious power naps. This particular nap spanned from ~ 6pm to 1:30am (If you were trying to contact me between these times, please for give me. I didn't mean to sleep that long). A slumber like that could only be caused by something that was truly draining, though history has shown I have a knack for falling asleep for extended periods of time, sometimes in strange locations.
For the past two days, I have had the pleasure of helping with the Seattle University New Student Orientation Program with the sickest people I know (and I don't mean queasy). Though tiring, the first summer session was extremely fun. I will be working on these until the 24th, so please forgive me if I appear to have gone into hiding.
I am extremely pumped for the new class of SU, but am also anxious to start my own journey in less than two weeks. Thank you all for your support and I will try to make this blog thing worthwhile. Pace fuori ("Peace out")!
Love,
Michael
