Welcome to my blog
In this space, I share snippets of my faith journey as a missionary in Italy. As an empty nester with family members scattered around the globe, I also explore the challenges of aging, loneliness, and missing loved ones.
At the heart of this blog is my passion for La Dolce Vita. To me, this means aspiring to live a quiet, peaceful life filled with contentment. It means loving others, being a good steward of God’s gifts, and recognizing His presence in even the simplest moments of everyday life.
For me, this is the “true dolce vita,” and it’s found in the joy of walking with Jesus. Let’s pursue this journey together!
