I really love Italy. Really. So much is wonderful; the food, the sights, the people… It’s a beautiful place to live! Some things just need to be shared, though: I’m (probably) signing life away. I fully agree to be trafficked within and around Italy. Love, Jessica M. Streisel These first bunch of months have involved […]
