Italy: My First Week in Pavia

Submitted by Roque Vasquez Escamilla on the 2022 winter session program in Italy sponsored by the College of Health Sciences…

Ciao! My first week in Pavia, Italy has been amazing. From the moment I arrived to the city, I was taken aback by the architecture and the city’s streets. Soon after arriving at the hotel and settling down, I went out and explored Pavia.

Something I really like about Pavia is how everything is connected and within walking distance. Back in Delaware if you want to go eat somewhere you typically have to drive to a restaurant and over here in Pavia you are just a few blocks from many restaurants and shops.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This weekend, I had the opportunity to visit Lake Como and I was fascinated by the breathtaking views and I was able to tour Como. Overall, my first week in Italy has been full of new experiences, and I’m looking forward to more in the next few weeks!
