Czeckin’ out Prague 12/11/14
I remember planning out the trips I’d be taking with my dad before I officially started school at CIMBA. We had many options, yet Prague did not make the final cut. So when the ladies — Kayla and Sam — and I found cheap(ish) flights to and from Prague, I was beyond excited. I have […]

Nine days of travel, three countries, countless memories. 12/11/14
With the arrival of the travel week, we were officially half way through the semester, even though it felt like I just stepped foot in PdG days ago. Although I’ve been traveling throughout my time here, for some reason it felt odd to me that I wouldn’t be in class for a total of nine […]

"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 […]

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. I remember posing for family pictures in front of Ponte Vecchio. I remember strolling through the San Lorenzo leather market […]

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 […]

Oktoberfest in Munich! 11/20/14
Ciao! For the third weekend in CIMBA, I decided to leave Italy and go to another country! This was not because I was tired of being in Italy already but because this weekend was the last weekend of Oktoberfest (A grand beer festival) in Munich, Germany! This was quite improvised by my friend, Andy, but […]

It is the City, Milano! 11/20/14
Ciao! The second week has passed even faster than the first week. This week, our team was included in the LIFE program, which is a renowned leadership program. It required me to have great focus on my life plan and the way to be a leader. After graduating from the program, I recognized why CIMBA […]

Hop on Hop off 11/05/14
Add a Seat was definitely one of my favorite experiences. McKenzie and I were grouped together to eat dinner with an Italian student and their family. We really didn’t know what to anticipate, other than wonderful food. As the entire “Add a Seat” group walked outside we discussed our hopes of what this dinner would […]

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 […]
