Week 1 in Volterra

Submitted by James Fasy on the 2024 Winter FINC program in Italy…

During our first week we arrived on the SIAF campus in Tuscany where we were able to visit the very old city of Volterra. This was my first time being in a new country and I enjoyed being able to see the incredible views of the Tuscan hills. We had many opportunities to walk around and go out in the town which allowed students to meet everyone and get to know the professors. The old city walls and buildings gave it a very unique feeling that I have never felt before. (Submitted on January 19, 2024)
