Last week

Submitted by Alexandra Evangelist the 2024 Spring program in Rome, Italy

This is my last week abroad. It’s really emotional. I formed friendships that will last a lifetime. Along with saying goodbye to Rome and my friends, finals are all piling up. Packing all your clothes, new clothes, souvenirs, it’s also a struggle. Given the crazy time, I planned a day trip to Pisa and Cinque Terre where my friend and I stayed for one night. Pisa was so cool. The leaning tower was surreal. Cinque terre was also beautiful. It has 5 towns. I hiked through 3 of them and got a chance to see all of them by train as well. The food was delicious. They have great pesto in cinque terre. The last night is hitting and I find myself not wanting to leave. Studying abroad is a great experience all around. (Submitted on May 6,2024)
