Hello! My name is Jessica & I am the content creator of J is for Journey; I started this blog way back in the fall of 2013 when I left to teach English in Italy. And here I am, many years later, still blogging about travel, art history and culture – my three great passions in life. Now, with the birth of our sons, I have added a fourth passion: motherhood. I hope you enjoy the journey!

Please send me an email to request post topics or ask for more teaching materials - I love to share! jmfuriosi@gmail.com.
