Coronavirus and Lessons Learned 03/20/20
Coronavirus – it’s a hot topic these days and reasonably so. Hardly anybody knew what it was or that it even existed just a few weeks ago. Then it started to spread to South Korea, Japan, and of course Italy. And of all semesters, of all years, of all countries, I decided to study abroad […]

Settling In! 01/30/20
My first two weeks in Italy have been a whirlwind. My first few days of classes went by quickly and soon it was time for LIFE.
