5 Weekend Trip Tips

Third quarter is coming to an end and I have definitely learned a thing or two about traveling. One of the main reasons I came to Italy was because of how easy it would be to travel on the weekends. While I have successfully traveled to many countries this year, I will say it has...

Florentine Home

There is something about Florence. I can’t really put my finger on it, but something about this city makes me feel as if I’ve found what I had been looking for. The decision to travel abroad for a year was an exciting and life-changing one, as this was the first time truly being on my...
