Looking Ahead?

Been looking at the above jewellery school in Florence, Italy.
They do a short course, between 2 weeks and 3 months long....on FOUND OBJECTS.
Amazing. Would be so cool.
I had a look though their galleries, and far out, it's so daunting. Looking at what these guys achieve and make in their FIRST year is incredible. But I have to remember, that my degree was only specialised for two years, and the courses these guys are doing are at a whole school DEDICATED to teaching jewellery!!! It must be so amazing. Being completely surrounded by jewellery, and ideas, and makers, and tools, and materials, and books, and everything!!!! All just jewellery.

Would be incredible. 2013 perhaps? Who knows....might look at getting in touch with them about it, and finding out some more information on the course :)

Would be an amazing place to start my travels! Then see the world, gathering inspiration and new experiences....itchy feet much? Never had them before! Never really thought much about travelling, but think I need to while I'm young, and have nothing holding me back here!!

2013 is also UWH world championships in South Africa....so could compete at the tournament, travel up through Africa to Italy, then do the rest of Europe after the course.

All I can hear is *ca-ching* right now....because that is one EXPENSIVE but AMAZING adventure/dream!
