I'm Stacy, and I will be completing my masters degree in music this May. As a gift to myself, I am going to Europe for three weeks. Oh, and I'm bringing my significant other, Bert. Did I mention he's a professional cook and complete foodie? The three-week tour de force will cover many different areas of Europe, with primary focus on the musical and culinary sights and experiences these countries have to offer.

My plane leaves in 122 days.
