welcome to my room!

{i wear christmas socks year round...}

these past few days have been relatively uneventful, so i thought i would take the opportunity to show you my humble little room. it's not very big but it seems very spacious to me because of its high walls and the open space at the center of the room.

what you see when you first enter the room.

the first half of the room.

bookshelf of students past. including but not limited to
the great gatsby,
a walk to remember,
and the perks of being a wallflower-
some of my favorites.
ender's game is also there, to remind me of david.
surely, this is destiny.

cozy little desk complete with journal, polaroid of raine, and a card from my sister <3

a photo taken by my host father.
it's actually 4 photos put together to make 1 whole.
i think it's amazing.

the other corner of the room.
i love that there is art everywhere in this house

closets weren't originally built with apartments in florence. so we get these cute little cabinets. this is my whole wardrobe for the next 6 months (give or take a few travel purchases...)

the view from my window.
to the left, the way to the train station.
to the right, the piazza santa maria novella.

the several-century-year-old fresco on the ceiling.
it's fairly simple, but i think it makes my room unique.
