This group is for girls in their 20's who are looking to make long-lasting and gratifying friendships. You may think this an odd title for a group of this sort, so allow me to share a story.

In my spring semester of 2011, I studied abroad in Rome and made friends with two amazing girls. These girls and I found that our common ground was a crazy thirst for life and …
