Assisi: Home of St. Francis
St. Francis was all about being in harmony with nature. When you see how pretty is his home town, you can understand why.
Pictures of Assisi are pretty easy to find. You might do a Net stroll and see what you can see. Pictures of the valley taken from the town really give a flavor of the place.
What order did St. Francis found? OK, that was an easy one. What female religious order was founded at Assisi?
The story of St. Francis' life is a very interesting one. You might pursue that trail.
You might also try to figure out the connection between St. Francis and the book (and movie) The Name of the Rose.
