Book Preview:

#1 I was 19 years old, and I had never seen my parents sit at the same table. I was preoccupied by independence, and I trusted my sense of responsibility. I was sometimes wrong, but I never regretted my decisions.

#2 I wanted to become a translator, and Italian was a more practical choice than French. I had spent a month and a half in Italy with my mom and her family in 2002, and I had come away thinking Italy was a welcoming, culturally and historically rich country.

#3 I wanted to spend the year learning Italian in Perugia, a city between Florence and Rome. I’d been living away from home for almost two years, working, and getting good grades. I was an adult and could take care of myself.

#4 I was the stereotypical awkward teenager, and I never really fit in with the more mainstream kids at my high school. I made friends with a more mainstream group of kids, and I was drawn to them because they were so cohesively together.
