Emily, Italy. As a little girl in rural Oklahoma, Emily Sovich dreamed about exploring the world. Now, as an adult, she's traveled across countries and continents working to realize that dream. In so doing, she's formed friendships across cultures and built connections that will last her a lifetime. When she isn't traveling, Emily lives in a small valley deep in the Sicilian countryside with her husband and their two daughters. In her fleeting moments of spare time, she keeps a record of all things simple and small on her blog Discovering Flowers.
