An Ode to the Small Towns 10/23/17
Ciao tutti! This past weekend, several Cimbians and I took a break from travelling and stayed local in Paderno. It was a much needed break from the rush of seeing a new place, and we had a blast exploring all the area has to offer. It made me particularly appreciative […]

Culture Shock is Real, Folks. 06/01/16
Traveling throughout Europe, so far, has been the best decision I have ever made. Italy has a beautiful language (‘bella’ means beautiful in Italian, isn’t that so much prettier than English?). The people of Italy are interesting and full of unique perspectives on the world. No matter how much this beautiful land takes my breath […]

Day Trips May Just Change Your Life 02/14/16
Want to spend the weekend in Paris? Prague? Barcelona?… Yes, of course! Those are all completely realistic goals here. It is so easy to jump on a plane, train, or bus and make it to any one of those places in a few short hours. This is, by far and wide, the craziest thing I […]

The Importance of Embracing Uncertainty While Living Abroad 02/11/16
Ciao Ciao! I’ll be the first to admit, I’m a big fan of a scheduled routine. At home my days are constructed based off my to-do list, so there’s not much uncertainty in my everyday life!

At this point, I’m completely settled into my dorm in Paderno del Grappa, Italy, I’ve met some amazing people, and I’m having a phenomenal time. However, I still have not unpacked my suitcase yet.

Now you're speaking my language! 09/21/14
Salve! (Hello!) For those of you who have traveled abroad, you’ll probably be able to relate to this. Potentially the most frightening part of a travel experience is encountering and working around a language barrier.

Moral of the story: Just do it! 06/09/14
Here, there and everywhere! I have been so busy talking about my exciting weekends, I forgot to mention how amazing simple week nights can be. I remember my first afternoon that I had “free” when I was in Italy. A group of friends and I had a few hours to study and finish our homework […]

Adjusting to Study Abroad and the Perks of Befriending Locals 01/24/14
Wow what a first week! It seems that this first week was an initial sprint before the marathon. Its hard to believe that I met my friends less than one week ago, but the dense schedule of the first week brought us together quickly. Check-in day offered a chance to catch-up on jet lag for […]
