It’s so fascinating that in such a small town like Paderno Del Grappa, there are many surrounding towns that make this part of the Veneto region so beautiful. This week I visited a beautiful town called […]

All in a days work 01/28/13
Ciao, Back again here to tell everyone about the great experience I had in the little town of Crespano, just a brisk walk from the Paderno campus. Crespano is just fifteen minutes west of campus on a well-established road, so there are sidewalks that we Americans are used to and not the single file walking […]

A Great Ball of Fire 11/19/12
Salve! Sunday, I attended my first European futbol match. I figured with only two weeks left, it was something that definitely needed to be checked off my cultural to-do list. I have never been a huge soccer fan, so I was definitely there to focus on experiencing the culture of the game. The game was […]

Vino Rosso o Vino Bianco? 11/19/12
Wine is a big part of the Italian culture, as most people know, but I had no clue how in depth the wine world really is. Fortunately, I got to experience this firsthand with two activities I did this past week—a vineyard tour and a wine seminar. Last Sunday a group of us visited local […]

An Italian Home Sweet Home 10/04/12
Study abroad students, which are generally broke college kids, are notorious for traveling Europe by jumping from hostel to hostel. Before coming to Europe, I was given many pointers from past student travelers warning me about the many horrors of hostel-hopping. Staying in a hostel will forever be a skeptical experience because there’s always the […]

I Took the One Less Traveled by, and That has Made All the Difference. 09/28/12
Salve! The title of this post is a quote from Robert Frost’s poem The Road Not Taken and this idea definitely applied to my weekend. My friends and I hopped on a train and traveled to Florence, Italy. People always say that you need to thoroughly plan your vacations or you will just be wandering […]
