Brian and Brooke - A couple of 3 years and counting!  We live in Normal, IL.

Brian - Age 23 - Brian is a graduate student at Illinois State University in Economics.  He just graduated in May 2006 from Bradley University with a B.A. in English and Economics.  His latest adventure was spending the entire summer in White Plains, NY working as a research intern at Bunge.  Brian has never been out of the country and is very excited about this trek!       

Brooke - Age 24 - Brooke works as an IT Analyst, troubleshooting computer problems all day.  She graduated in 2005 with a B.A. in International Studies from the University of Illinois.  An avid traveler, she has been to Italy twice, once in high school and once in college for study abroad.  Since then she has become obsessed with going back.  Brooke enjoys artsy crafty endeavors, bowling, guitar (spent a good 4 years of her life playing/singing in bands) and has studied Latin and Italian extensively (looking into Russian now).  Brooke is ready and willing to do whatever it takes to have an amazing, fun-filled, and awe-inspiring trip of a lifetime!
