Okay, so I have finally put up all the pictures from my Tuscany trip in October. I created an album for each city I visited: Siena, Arezzo, and Florence. I also have one for the wine tasting. So, please check them out and enjoy the sights of some Italian cities outside of Rome.

Soon to come: pictures from my second academic excursion in Campania, south of Rome. And photos from my fall break in Dublin and Paris (I've been travelling Europe for 11 days, so I haven't been online. But, I will be catching up on blogs and photos as fast as I can!). Stay tuned!

So after my longer-than-desired fall break, I only had two days back in Rome before I was jetting off again to southern Italy for a second academic excursion, where we visited Naples, Sorrento, and Pompeii. I’m ready for some time in Rome! But, I only have four days back here before leaving again—for Germany. I’m all about traveling and taking advantage of the opportunity to do so while in Europe, but I’m tired of living out of a suitcase and dealing with airport security! My advice to future study abroad students is to do a good deal of traveling, but leave yourself enough downtime in your city of study to recover and get schoolwork done so you're not spreading yourself too thin. My mistake. Ugh… alright enough venting for now. Gotta go put some time into what I’m here for—studying.
