Time Flies When You’re at CIMBA 03/24/15
I spent this past weekend in Rovinj, Croatia. I was really excited to go to Croatia because I had heard great things from family and friends who have visited. We left campus after classes on Friday at 5:30 p.m. We took a bus to Rovinj and arrived very late, so we took it easy the […]

My Favorite (Non-Italian) City 03/19/15
Last Friday, I set off on a 10-day journey with 24 other students on my program for “spring break”. We were on a mission to see 4 countries in 10 days. We traveled by bus, which was a nice change of pace from all the flying I’ve been doing lately. We left Friday night around 9pm and drove […]

Adrenaline Rush 03/06/15
“The trail is the thing, not the end of the trail. Travel too fast and you miss all that you are traveling for.” —Louis L’Amour These wise words were engrained in my mind as I persevered to the peak of Mount Grappa.

Cabs and trains and buses, oh my! 03/04/15
As I’ve mentioned in previous blog posts, we traveled frequently in the three months we lived in Italy and loved every minute. But it’s worth mentioning how different travel is for a study abroad student in Europe in comparison to travelling in the United States. Don’t worry, I’ll also provide some helpful advice to those […]

The French Riviera: From Nice to Monaco 03/03/15
My travels led me to Nice, France this past weekend. Let me begin by saying that Nice is more than nice. The French Riviera is gorgeous, enchanting, and glamorous altogether. This scenic region attracts rich tourists from all over the world, so as a poor college student I figured why not experience this area myself! […]

Parting is such sweet sorrow… 01/01/15
I traveled to 6 different countries (seven if you count Vatican City) and explored 26 new places over 3 months. At the end of my three months in Italy with CIMBA, I had really mixed feelings about going home to the U.S. On one hand, I couldn’t wait to see my mom and spend Christmas with my family. […]

My list trip in Italy – Venetia 12/19/14
Ciao My plan during the semester was to travel to most of the cities in Italy. After spending 12 weeks in Italy, I almost reached my goal. Reflecting on these journeys, I saw the very southern part, beaches, capital cities, fashion, mid parts, and others. However, there is one last mission for me, VENETIA!!! Venetia… It was also one of my dreaming […]
