Florence, Firenze, My Favorite Italian City 12/05/14
I had been to Florence in 2009 with my family and I absolutely loved it. I remember running through the Piazza della Signoria on the way to grab a last minute charm for my charm bracelet. I remember posing for family pictures in front of Ponte Vecchio. I remember strolling through the San Lorenzo leather market […]

Around Italia in 10 Days 11/26/14
Part of the uniqueness of the CIMBA program is its emphasis on learning through experience, with which I wholeheartedly agree. In total, students get about 27 days of travel in a semester of only 89 days. That’s 30% travel time, which has been so great, but in reality each of us has been looking forward […]

Travel Week PART 2 11/26/14
How wonderful London is! How unfortunate the currency exchange rate is! London after Ireland was the English language haven that we were all so ready to enter. We [Sam, Lindsay, Taylor, and I] arrived at the airport and headed straight to The Tube. So while walking around our first day, we begun to notice these […]

I'm Here. Now What? 05/20/14
Wow. I am finally here. I don’t think that it’s quite set in fully that I’m in Italy, but this sure isn’t Kansas anymore (well, Illinois technically.) But that’s not to say that there aren’t already noticeable differences. For one, as I was trying to navigate the Frankfurt airport at 6 in the morning, which […]

When in Rome 03/10/14
This past weekend was one of the best weekends I have had here in Italy. From local restaurants to street kebabs, and karaoke to packed bars, so many great memories were made. 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 […]

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 […]

Italy and a Taste of Spain 11/12/13
It’s hard to believe another week has come and gone already. As usual our week was filled with lots to do and places to go! On Monday night we had the expatriate panel, where CIMBA brings in individuals who have worked outside of their home country to speak about their experiences and answer any questions. […]

Oktoberfest Culture 10/07/13
There is no feeling quite like crossing out a line on my bucket list. It means the days of letting my mind wander are done, and there’s no need to google any more pictures. It happened, and I must say Oktoberfest was much more than I could have ever imagined. My bucket list consists mainly […]
