A NEW TRAVELING ADVENTURE BEGINS

I'm leaving in one week for Florence, Italy - the birthplace of the Renaissance and home of some of the most beautiful works of art and sculpture. This trip will have only half of the Traveling Blonde duo since I'm traveling with Todd (theroamingeconomist.blogspot.com)- who definitely can't pass as a blond. The other Traveling Blonde and I are planning another adventure next year.

I'm staying for two weeks in Florence and planning to soak up as much of the culture as possible - from Masaccio's frescos in the Brancacci Chapel to the Prada outlet!
