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 […]

Home is where the heart is. 12/31/14
As myself and a few other CIMBians made our last trip of the semester to the Venice Marco Polo Airport together, it felt like any other weekend adventure. I didn’t truly grasp that I wouldn’t be arriving back on campus in Paderno del Grappa anytime soon until I was going through customs back in the […]

My list trip in Italy – Venetia 12/19/14
Ciao My plan during the semester was to travel to most of the cities in Italy. After spending 12 weeks in Italy, I almost reached my goal. Reflecting on these journeys, I saw the very southern part, beaches, capital cities, fashion, mid parts, and others. However, there is one last mission for me, VENETIA!!!

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.

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 […]

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? […]

Forever a Tourist 10/29/14
It’s about time that we went to Venice, don’t you think? It required a short and simple train ride. I heard some conflicting reviews about Venice, so I went in with an open attitude. My consensus is….it’s average. I know, a little disappointing. I think if you are ever residing close to Venice you should […]

The Time of My Life 07/09/14
I saw things I’ll remember for the rest of my life on this trip. Watching the sunset from the Riomaggiore harbor, the vast beauty of the Duomo Cathedral in Florence, the stone walls of the Colloseum and the divine sight of the Creation of Adam in the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City. I could go […]
