A Survey of Europe: London, Dublin, Brussels, and Amsterdam! 03/26/14
Whew, am I tired! I have just returned from our travel week and after walking countless miles exploring the cities of London, Dublin, Brussels, and Amsterdam my body is begging for some well-deserved rest. For those you may not be aware, one aspect of the CIMBA program is an entire week off from classes to […]

Ljubljana (Loo-bee-ya-na) 03/26/14
We decided to take a spontaneous trip to Slovenia this past weekend and it ended up being such a beautiful surprise. It was only a 3-hour ride through the Alps and Slovenian countryside until we arrived to the whimsical capital, Ljubljana. We began our first night with a 5-course Balkan dinner at a small, underground […]

Paris 03/26/14
This past week at CIMBA we had our week-long break. My friends and I decided we wanted to have a relaxing week, where we didn’t have to do a lot of walking around and sightseeing. We went to Paris, Madrid, Ibiza, and Barcelona. The only place we did any sightseeing was Paris, and I am […]

The Island of Malta 03/12/14
Adventures off the beaten path are often the most rewarding. On our last travel weekend, my friends and I decided to go to Sicily and Malta. I was really excited to go to Sicily because Dr. Al (the Director of CIMBA who is also my Law professor) has been telling my class great things about […]

Adventures in Madrid 03/12/14
When my friends told me they had booked Madrid for our first travel weekend, I was a little apprehensive. If I was going to Spain, I wanted to go to a city like Barcelona (which I am going to on an upcoming weekend.. Stay Tuned for a Blog!). It was a random destination, but I […]

Saturday Hike on Mount Grappa 03/11/14

This past weekend, my friends and I decided to stay back from all of the chaos of traveling and enjoy a short, quiet weekend in Paderno. We […]

What I don't miss about America 03/11/14
The first thing that comes to my mind when I think about what I don’t miss about America is pizza. Pizza has always been one of my favorite foods, but the pizza here is nothing like I have ever tasted before. No matter where I am in Italy, each bite of pizza leaves me wanting […]

Time Flies When You’re Having Fun! Mindfulness, Projects, Family, and Two Historic Italian Cities 03/11/14
And yet another week flies by at CIMBA. I cannot believe that we are already more than halfway through our semester. I know that I have said it before, but there is just so much happening on campus that, before you know it, you are leaving to travel on the weekend and thinking of everything […]

When in Rome 03/10/14

Our travel break this weekend was from Thursday to Sunday. We left for Rome on Wednesday night and arrived at about 11pm. Our […]

Study Abroad Insights 03/07/14
I have spent a lot of time reflecting on the surprises, realizations and knowledge I’ve gained since I left home 9 weeks ago. I came to Europe with an extensive list of things to do and places to go and monuments to see, but I have realized that that is not what I will carry […]
