Remembering Italy

I can't believe it's been a whole year since I came home from Italy. The three months I spent there gave me so many great memories. I learned so much by going somewhere I had never been, with people I had never met. Here's just a snapshot into the life I led and the places I saw.

Rome, Italy



Sperlonga, Italy 

Venice, Italy



Murano, Italy

Burano, Italy


Orvieto, Italy

Florence, Italy


Villa d'Estes, Italy



Paris, France




London, England





Edinburgh, Scotland




Forever missing these girls and the experiences we had. I will never forget my 3 months abroad <3

Home (Rome) Tour

Here is a quick glance at the convent I am staying at. I am definitely in love with the views. And in case it wasn't clear, the weather here is constantly overcast and chilly. Definitely not what this Cali girl is used to.

First Day Madness

Holy Moly I'm in Rome! After 20 Hours of traveling, lunch and 3 hours of orientation, I am able to sit at my desk and take a breather. I am also able to say that I have already started falling in love with the city. Despite their insane driving and a 30 degree drop in temperature, this city is beautiful. On our drive from the airport, we caught a glance of the Colosseum and some of the original city walls. I love that I am surrounded by so much history. Can't wait for more! Also, ignore any bad quality in these photos; we were driving to the convent.
