We have reached our halfway point here at CIMBA. With that being said, everyone has gotten a lot more settled in and accustomed to the lifestyle the campus has to offer. The first couple weeks were more geared to getting to know each other, followed by a heavy combination and focus on travel and academics. Hidden […]

When in Rome 06/02/15
Ciao! Whether you are in Italy, another country, or even at home, “when in Rome” can be a good philosophy to live by. Experience the world around you. Live it, love it, and try it. Embrace your old routine of actions, but don’t be afraid to try something new. “When in Rome” pushes you to […]

Walking through Clouds 09/30/14
Salve! This week has been crazy to say the least. Classes seem great so far- but I’ve only had two days of them. Strange, right? I’m currently in the LEAP program and Group B (B for Best) took the Da Vinci Challenge. From strategizing how to complete obstacles to going against your natural instincts in […]

Soaking it all in: EWAPs, Hiking Mt. Grappa, Company Visits, Carnevale, and MORE! 02/24/14
I cannot believe that my semester at CIMBA is already half-way completed. I still remember the first week, meeting all my new classmates, making sense of the hectic schedule, and frantically organizing travel plans. Now, it seems that we have known each other for a much longer time than 6 weeks, the first week schedule […]

An Overview of Campus Life and Dinner with a Local Italian Family! 02/03/14
Things are finally beginning to settle down around campus – let me rephrase that – a somewhat consistent schedule is beginning to emerge. The first three weeks at CIMBA were the most engaging and eye-opening weeks I have experienced. I think it is impossible to convey the exact feelings during these three weeks without experiencing […]

Top of the World 02/05/13
Ciao, This past Sunday two friends and I decided to take on the 1700-meter mount Grappa, which towers in the background of the scenic campus. First I’ll give some background because the mountain is no ordinary pile of rocks. This mountain was the backdrop of many battles in both WWI and WWII. The most memorable […]

Just a Normal Sunday… Climbing a Mountain 03/06/12
“So, what’d you do this weekend?” Oh, not much. Just climbed a mountain. Yes, that’s right. I climbed a mountain last weekend. And not just any mountain – Paderno’s own Mt. Grappa! The 5,823-foot-tall mountain rises up in the background of our campus (and dominates the view from my dorm room window!), and since my […]
