Ok, so I never thought I would be writing a blog, or moreover, why on earth anyone would ever want to read about my life. I guess you could say I never really expected to be living in Italy though either.
That being said, let me just start off by saying that if you are not planning on studying abroad, THINK AGAIN! I’ve been in Rome, Italy now for almost a month now and it has already been such an incredible experience. I’ve pretty much had the best month EVER!
Aside from taking classes at The American University of Rome, Salve’s affiliated school here in Italy, I’ve been doing a lot of traveling and sightseeing. I spent the first two weeks getting to know Rome and exploring all the amazing achitectual sights and ruins in this city and since then I’ve been doing a lot of traveling on the weekends. I’ve been to Florence, Capri, Positano, Pompeii, Pisa, and Barcelona, Spain. My favorites were Capri and Positano which were absolutely beautiful! The train system and cheap flights through RyanAir make it really easy to do this sort of traveling every weekend and there are also some great companies like Bus2Alps and EuroAdventures that do all-inclusive weekends complete with tours and sightseeing!
I plan to spend the next two weeks in Rome since there is still so much I haven’t seen or done! Rome is such a large city with SO MUCH to do! If you are thinking about studying abroad I would DEFINITLY suggest doing an entire semester, rather than just a summer intersession because there is no way I could imagine going home yet…
