Florence Nightingale was born in Florence,Italy,while her wealthy English parents were travelling in Europe.As a child,she travelled to many places with her family and learned how to speak several languages.
When Nightingale was 17,she told her family that she was going to help sick people.Her parents did not agree,but Nightingale was determined.
