This site made possible by the following parties:

My Dad, who financed my entire stay in Italy, who gave me great advice on what to see and do, who came and visited me and let me give him the "art historical tour" of Florence, who has been my greatest mentor when it comes to living a positive, healthy lifestyle, and truly caring about others, in actions more than in words.

My Mom, who gives me great advice on how to deal with my Dad when he gives me a hard time. And for buying all of the film that was used to take the pictures you see in this website! She also gave me some money for my trip. And last but not least, for being the great, awesome, cool, down-to-earth, spiritual person that she is.

My fiance, Kevin, who inspired me and encouraged me to make this website happen. He taught me about graphics, HTML, web-design software, techniques, and all that other techno-stuff that you see in the pages to follow. He is the "Computer Babe" behind the Computer Babe!

My roommates in Italy: Christy, Angela, and Katrina, for teaching me how to live with people who are different, and showing me the true meaning of friendship.
