Best teachers out there 04/02/13

Pisa and the Leaning Tower 03/05/13
Ciao, This past weekend many of us took a trip to Florence, Italy as well as Pisa. These are both a must do while over in Italy; the architecture is amazing in both cities and there is so much history, you could lose yourself for days. Pisa is a small city on the west coast […]

Wine and Verona and Everything in Between 01/28/13
Back in the United States, a week of school drags on and feels like a month. But here in Italy, they fly by in a blink of an eye. I know it is only the second week, but I already fear my emotions when I leave here. People have gotten so close in such a […]

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.

A Bittersweet Goodbye 12/05/12
On Saturday afternoon, I had to say goodbye to 75 of my closest friends. Needless to say, they were all tearful goodbyes. I’ve never met so many genuine, inspiring, amazing people in my entire life, and yet I had the opportunity to live, travel, and study with them for three whole months. Words will never […]

Strangers Are Just Family You Have Yet to Come to Know 11/28/12
Salve We started off this adventure three months ago as complete strangers. Just a random group of college students from all over the United States, with seemingly nothing more in common than the desire to study in Italy. However, now I can confidently say that we are family. This was never more prevalent than it was Monday […]

So Many Places, So Little Time 09/19/12
Ciao Everyone! The end of orientation is upon us and everyone here is so pumped for the first travel weekend! Most conversations surround the topic of traveling and all the different places that people are going this weekend.
