A Bittersweet Goodbye 12/05/12
On Saturday afternoon, I had to say goodbye to 75 of my closest friends. Needless to say, they were all tearful goodbyes. I’ve never met so many genuine, inspiring, amazing people in my entire life, and yet I had the opportunity to live, travel, and study with them for three whole months. Words will never […]

I've Left My Heart in Prague 11/28/12
Before coming to Europe, I asked my older brother who had studied abroad in Europe before if there was one city I must visit, what city would it be? Without any hesitation he told me I had to make sure I got to see Prague, which is the capital of the Czech Republic. To be […]

This past weekend, a few of my friends and I decided to finally venture into the city of Venice. This was our first experience wandering through the city, despite the fact that we only live a mere hour away! We had heard nothing but great things about Venice and all the historical sites to see. […]

A Chocoholic's Dream Come True 10/17/12
This past week, we had our first week of independent travel. I had the opportunity to travel to the South of France, Paris, and Interlaken, Switzerland. By far, my favorite place we visited was Interlaken. It’s situated between two picturesque lakes with snow-capped mountains surrounding it. Not only is it one of the most beautiful […]

An Italian Home Sweet Home 10/04/12
Study abroad students, which are generally broke college kids, are notorious for traveling Europe by jumping from hostel to hostel. Before coming to Europe, I was given many pointers from past student travelers warning me about the many horrors of hostel-hopping. Staying in a hostel will forever be a skeptical experience because there’s always the […]

Firenze, The Roman City 09/28/12
This past weekend was our first travel weekend here at CIMBA, so naturally a large group of us planned our first trip to Firenze, or Florence in the Italian region of Tuscany. I had been to Florence once before, but it was interesting to see how much my perspective of the city changed the second time. […]

WOW! I cannot believe I have not even been here for a full two weeks yet. So much has been happening and we have all been so extremely busy, it feels as though I’ve been in the Italian mountains for an eternity. But, who’s to complain about that! I quickly discovered I would love nothing […]
