Hello!
 My name is Lauren and have been living in the USA for my whole life. I am of Italian decent (I can cook a mean gravy). My grandparents are off the boat from Calabria back in the ealry 30s. 
My father had the opportunity to join the Navy and travel to various places around the world, stopping in Italy at certain points. He was able to connect with ancestors of our past and learn about our lineage.
I would love the opportunity to do the same. I have connected with family already in Italy via Facebook. Being able to come full circle and visit the land where my grandparents came from would be the ultimate dream. 
Thank you!!
