Welcome to my blog!

I figured this would be the best way to keep in touch with my family and friends while on my three and a half month Roman adventure. As of today, I am 46 days away from moving to Rome. I don't have a visa or a place to live, and I don't know Italian, but why focus on the details.

To catch everyone up, I am going to Rome for an internship. I will be working at the United Nations World Food Programme Headquarters, which is basically amazing. I will be in the Office of Communications and Public Policy Strategy Division working under the Youth Outreach Coordinator. That is just a long, fancy way of saying that I will have the best job ever! I will be contacting universities all around the world, telling them about Universities Fighting World Hunger (UFWH) to get them involved with the movement. I will also help develop materials geared towards primary, secondary and university students, which includes curriculum, newsletters, etc. Lastly, I will handle all of the youth outreach enquiries and assist in creating a WFP FAQ information package based on those enquiries.

While I am in Italy I am going to try to post every couple of days, so check back frequently!

Ciao!
