I am currently into my last two months at the University of North Alabama. Since I moved to Florence in August of 2012, I have been in love with the town. In class, other students would introduce themselves and say that Florence is so small compared to where they are from. I am from a one-stoplight town that is twenty minutes from a Walmart and an hour from a mall. Florence is huge for me! There are three Walmarts and a mall within ten or so minutes from my house. This area is rich with history and culture, and that is why I love it.
Even though I have been here for about four years, there are still quite a few things I have yet to do. I think a lot of students miss out on all the awesome things the Shoals has to offer due to lack of knowledge. So I have created a bucket list to complete before I graduate in May, and I am going to share my adventure through this blog. I will also share some of my favorite places or things I have already experienced! I hope to help you appreciate Florence, and the Shoals, and all they have to offer!
