Florence
Beautiful Italia. The first foreign country to become my home for the summer. Guys, I'm not going to lie, Florence, Italy was not my first choice for my study abroad. When I thought of Florence, I imagined the most touristy city on earth. I felt as if it were one of the most basic places a college student could go. BUT my angel of a roommate, Summer, convinced me to choose this magical place to go with her, and man am I glad she did! Of all the places I've ever traveled, Italy has now stolen first place as one of my favorite destinations. There's a joy that's indescribable in the air, beauty lies in every direction your eyes fall, and the feeling of home overwhelms you in each stranger's smile.

Florence University Of The Arts
Between tasting, and sightseeing, I was actually going to class at the Florence University of the Arts, and I took two classes - Sketch Book, and Travel Writing. The photo below, is one of my most cherished moments. A little boy was watching me sketch for one of my assignments, and was mesmerized as I was working, and asked if he could give it a try.

Walkabout Florence Tours
Go wine tasting in the Tuscan Hills (vespa tours & horse-back riding tours through the vineyards are SO worth it)
