My Study Abroad Adventures: Florence, Italy

The next stop on our trip was Florence. I can’t even express how beautiful this city is. I had such a blast here getting to understand the culture, food, and wonderful sights. Here are a few highlights.

An INCREDIBLE morning view of Florence! 

The Baptistry.

Loved walking past the Ponte Vecchio every day! 

So much gelato, but it was SO worth it!

We had a blast at our cooking class. I can successfully make homemade pasta. 

Florence is so beautiful. It exceeded my expectations.

Our hats that we made at our Millinery workshop.

The group at Piti Uomo, the biggest men's trade show.

Had to make a stop to see Dave!

Many thanks to Professor Werner for taking us on this unforgettable trip. The memories will last a lifetime!

Florence was an incredible experience, and nothing like I had expected. I can’t wait to go back there.

Until Next Time

My Study Abroad Adventures: Paris, France

My second stop on my trip was Paris! I was so excited to go, but I have to say I was a bit disappointed. Don’t get me wrong; Paris is beautiful, I just think it is a bit overrated. We still managed to have a great time though! Here are a few of my favorite snapshots.

 On the Eurostar from London to Paris!

Arc De Triomphe!

We finally made it to the Eiffel Tower!

Notre Dame Cathedral<3

Beautiful view of Paris!

Seeing the Eiffel Tower sparkle. So incredibly beautiful!

 Lovers Bridge!

Throwing the keys to our best friend lock in the Seine!

 Having a little fun at The Louvre Museum. 

 Couldn't leave Paris without saying hello to Miss. Mona!

 Sacred Heart Basilica.

Enjoying the view from the highest point in Paris!

 Versailles Palace is absolutely breathtaking!

Enjoying some ice cream on the Seine.

Saying one last goodbye to Mr. Eiffel!

My favorite moment from Paris was seeing the Eiffel Tower light up and sparkle. It is truly a breathtaking experience that everyone should see!

Until Next Time
