Wanderlust souls 09/30/13

It takes a certain type of person to drop everything they have become accustomed to, leaving behind the contentment of known friendships, and the warm feeling of home, to journey into the unfamiliar. To me, I find this process alluring and stimulating, and I have found 85 wanderlust spirits who have the same feelings that […]

An Italian secret 09/25/13

“I am spending my semester in Italy.” Words I have said one too many times. Time after time, I would explain to people my choice, then a conversation of people’s expectations and perceptions would soon follow. The most common statement goes along the lines of how every meal I consume would consist of pizza hand […]

My First Week in Paderno 09/24/13

Hi all! I have survived my first week in Paderno del Grappa. The flight over was extremely long.. and I was incredibly antsy to get here. Other than the six-hour layover in JFK it was not too painful. Once we arrived on campus, Istituti Filippin, we had a campus tour along with having some time […]

Years coming 09/09/13

Throughout my life I have been fortunate. I have been able to dig my toes into the sand on the playa in Mexico, and see the manmade stars New York can make in their concrete jungle while on the roof of a skyscraper. I gained these memories by traveling most of the US and several […]

6 weeks and a lot of memories 07/08/13

People said 4 weeks would fly by before I knew it and they weren’t kidding! It felt like I had just unpacked and started classes when I started packing my bags again and started studying for finals. The things I was able to see and do during those four weeks are things I will never have the […]

Czech This Out: Prague Week 10 04/01/13

As my study abroad experience comes close to the end, I have began to feel not only sad that I’ll be bored in Chicago soon, but I will miss seeing different parts of the world every weekend. Skyscrapers in Chi-city do not compare to some of the buildings and monuments I have laid my eyes […]

Fun, Fur, Food, Friends, Florence. 03/05/13

Although I am studying abroad in the wonderful country of Italy, I came to the realization that I have been focusing a lot of my travel time outside of Italy and haven’t planned as many trips in Italy that I would like. I love to travel to other countries but it is important to focus […]

Different Country, Different Culture 02/27/13

I can’t even begin to wrap my head around the fact that I am almost half way done with my study abroad experience. There are so many things that I have experienced and seen, and there is still so much more to explore. This past weekend, I went to Interlaken, Switzerland and it was one […]

Trouble in Paradise 02/26/13

Ciao. After the first travel week I found the golden rule of traveling: never leave without knowing were you are sleeping. This came to bite my group in the butt many times during our travel break. First off was the first night in Venice: we could not find our hostel and did not have internet […]
