What LIFE Isn’t: Making Friends Abroad 09/30/16
I can’t believe it, but I’ve now been in Italy for a full week! I was lucky enough to spend the past weekend in Paris with some friends! With jet lag behind me, I’m happy to say I’ve finally started adjusting to life here. This past week has been CAP week. It has involved a […]

Looking at the World Through A New Lens: Reflections on Study Abroad 04/20/16
I actually cannot believe my time abroad has come to a close. It seems like just yesterday I was packing up my bags thinking of what to write about for my first CIMBA blog—how far we’ve come! Looking back, it’s hard to think of words to sum up the experience as a whole. I learned […]

What I Gained From Studying Abroad with CIMBA 04/19/16
Like most people, I was hesitant when choosing which CIMBA classes to sign up for. Specifically, I was unsure about the course LEAP, which is a leadership development course. I was teetering between adding LEAP or giving myself more time to travel and hang out. Fortunately, I made the final decision to sign up for LEAP […]

Back To Reality 05/08/15
Two weeks post-Europe and I am already missing my second home; I never thought I would be saying that! What is life really like after CIMBA? Well, listen up because I am about to tell it how it is. To be honest, I could probably sum it up in three short words: life is bland. It’s […]

More Wine than Water, More Churches than Houses, More Donkeys than People 02/19/15
It was the end of week 4 and on Friday afternoon there was an intense vibe in the air around campus as, all the Cimbians were working on their preparation for the first travel weekend, myself included. There was packing to do, tabacchi sandwiches to be picked up and classes to attend. Yeah…about that last […]

Parting is such sweet sorrow… 01/01/15
I traveled to 6 different countries (seven if you count Vatican City) and explored 26 new places over 3 months. At the end of my three months in Italy with CIMBA, I had really mixed feelings about going home to the U.S. On one hand, I couldn’t wait to see my mom and spend Christmas with my family. […]

My Story through Scarves 12/31/14
Ever since our first trip to Cinque Terre I have been purchasing scarves that represent my experience in the city. Looking at them all lying across the ground I saw far more than fabric, I see a journey that has come to an end externally but just begun internally. It was really strange to look […]

"Rome"ing for a Weekend 12/06/14
The fit four headed out for another adventure. ROME! We planned it for only two days- which was so not enough time, but let me tell you something- worth every second. We arrived through AlItalia, which you will learn is the best airline to use here unless (you’re feeling thrifty and a bit daring to […]

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. I attended all of the gourmet dinners they offered this semester and I can honestly say some of my favorite memories were made […]
