The Perks (and Quirks) of Italian Cuisine 09/27/15
Italy isn’t America. It seems obvious, right? The scenery is different, the language is different, the history is different, and the food is different. The first three differences were all ones that I was expecting. I also knew that the food was going to be different, but it turns out that the Italian food I […]

Basic Tips for Traveling in Europe 09/16/15
Where Have I Been? Good Question. I began my journey in Europe July 5th when I landed in Amsterdam and the next day I began my 6 week program in Utrecht, a smaller city only 30 minutes away by train from Amsterdam.

Don’t Ask. Just Eat. 06/09/15
Cassata, Panelle & Arancine- Oh My! Culture can be made up of many things, but food plays a key role in the perception of visitors. As a visitor of Sicily this weekend, I fell in love with their culture and their food. Even though Sicily is still apart of Italy, the cuisine has a unique […]

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 […]

Today, I am going to write about the food experience here. Usually, what I have in CIMBA is like this; first plate-pasta risotto or soup, second plate-meat and vegetables, desert and fruits. Since there are a number of menus in first and second plates, I am satisfied with meals on campus. I could learn how […]

Taking it easy in Verona! 11/05/14
This past weekend was all about relaxation. My travel buddies and I decided that we wanted to stray away from the busy weekend routine we have all become so accustomed to. This routine follows one basic rule… you’re always catching some form of transportation, whether it’s a plane, train, or automobile. See what I did there? […]

Ciao! Today, I will introduce CIMBA FALL 2014’s second gourmet dinner. Last time, the dinner was held in a nice Italian garden that provided us a full-course, formal dinner.
