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 not always been as glamorous as my Instagram may seem. So here are a few tips!

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 own. During my time here, I found this difficult at times, being away from all the things that make me feel at home- my family, cats and dogs, and familiar surroundings.

Street Art

If a city is the mother, then street art is her child, and like all children, they speak the truth.
In my travels of Europe, it has become one of my favorite pastimes to find and photograph street art. I’m drawn to the medium because of the authenticity in its message.

End of Winter Daydream

The days are slow and languid, yet progressing quickly. Parents and siblings have since gone from visiting the place we called home for the last 4 months. The holiday aftereffects left the nearly empty campus in a melancholic mood. The weather unusually began to contrast greatly from the typical cold and overcast days that we had begrudgingly become accustomed to in the previous months. Almost as if spring had introduced itself in the bleak and wintry month of January. As if the sunny days were a promise of the bright ones to come in the new year that had commenced.
