This week in Italy, I did something crazy and got my first tattoo! I got a hamsa which is culturally significant to me as well as very meaning full because its a symbol that meant a lot to my grandmother who passed away just over a year ago. While being in Europe, I have found out a lot about myself and realized how important the people in my life are and how my family really has shaped me into the person I am today. I got this tattoo to represent that and also to commemorate the amazing time I have had here in Italy. (Submitted on January 26, 2024)
