Two Adventures, One Weekend 05/31/14
So this past weekend, which was short (unfortunately) (but still awesome), my friends from my engineering class and I (11 of us total) decided to take a trip to Florence! When we arrived, we put our stuff away at the hostel because we were lucky/large enough to fill a room, so that we could lock […]

Cinque Terre 04/03/14
For our last weekend here in Italy, for some of us anyway, we decided to make a trip out to Cinque Terre. Cinque Terre is on the coast of Italy and is made up of five villages: Monterosso, Vernazza, Cornigilia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. Since even before I had left for Italy, I was told by […]

When in Rome 03/10/14

Our travel break this weekend was from Thursday to Sunday. We left for Rome on Wednesday night and arrived at about 11pm. Our […]

Big ol' Bolzano 02/24/14
I woke up bright and early at 4:45am Saturday morning, showered, packed my backpack, caught the 5:30am taxi and jumped on the train to Bolzano. I slept during the 3 hour train ride, but I couldn’t help but to peek open my eyes every so often to see the skyscraping mountains fly past my window. […]

A Once in a Lifetime Opportunity 11/27/13
Ciao! What an amazing weekend this last one was. I had the chance to visit Rome, which was absolutely incredible. The only thing that possibly could have been better was the weather, which was pouring down rain all day on Saturday. However, even with the rain, Rome was such an incredible experience and I wish […]

Italy and a Taste of Spain 11/12/13

On Monday night we had the expatriate panel, where CIMBA brings in individuals who have worked outside of their home country to speak about their experiences and answer any questions. […]

Exploring Germany 10/10/13
This Sunday marks my forth week for being in Paderno del Grappa. It is so hard to believe that one fourth of my study abroad is already over. This past weekend a large group ventured up to Oktoberfest in Munich Germany, which was definitely an experience. Since many hostels were booked up beforehand, we ended […]

Oktoberfest Culture 10/07/13
There is no feeling quite like crossing out a line on my bucket list. It means the days of letting my mind wander are done, and there’s no need to google any more pictures. It happened, and I must say Oktoberfest was much more than I could have ever imagined. My bucket list consists mainly […]
