Weekend in Venice

Submitted by Molly McGuigan on the 2025 Winter program in Venice, Italy

This past weekend we traveled to Venice and had the opportunity to stay overnight. This was by far the best part of my study abroad trip so far. Venice is a beautiful city filled with local people and great food. Venice made up of over 100 little islands having its visitors walk over tiny bridges around almost every corner. There are no cars on the island of Venice, but there are water taxis you can take to move around more efficiently. My favorite part of Venice was taking a gondola ride around the city at sunset. You could see all of the colorful buildings and their lights with a great view of the sky as well. I plan on returning to Venice this upcoming weekend during our personal travel time!
