An Unexpected Surprise, Finals Week, Paragliding and Saying Goodbye 04/09/14
As I sit here in my house in South Jersey, it still seems unreal that I will not be returning to my Italian dorm. Finals week sped by in a blur. Unlike a normal finals week where students remain cooped in their rooms or the library studying all day and night, this finals week was […]

My Final Days At CIMBA 04/03/14
Last night, we had our third and final CIMBA gourmet dinner. Every semester, CIMBA schedules three gourmet dinners, and the students and staff dress up and eat a nice, authentic Italian meal.

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 […]

As the weekend approached, I became more and more thankful that I wasn’t obligated to pack a weekend’s worth of clothes and toiletries into my Osprey 46 backpack.

Soaking it all in: EWAPs, Hiking Mt. Grappa, Company Visits, Carnevale, and MORE! 02/24/14
I cannot believe that my semester at CIMBA is already half-way completed. I still remember the first week, meeting all my new classmates, making sense of the hectic schedule, and frantically organizing travel plans. Now, it seems that we have known each other for a much longer time than 6 weeks, the first week schedule […]

A Peek Into Our First Gourmet Dinner 02/10/14
Our meal started around 9pm, but the preparation began hours earlier. We had been hearing about the infamous Gourmet Dinners since our first day on campus. Some of us have actually been aware of these dinners even before we arrived in Italy, because of students who have gone through the program in the past. A […]

A Village and A City 02/03/14
It’s hard to believe I’ve only been in Paderno for two and a half weeks. I’ve made so many good friends and met so many genuine people. The past few weeks have been packed with orientations, programs, and classes. However, we do get some free time on the weekends and we definitely take advantage of […]
