I first want to apologize for not completing the blogs from my previous travel adventures. Life got hectic as my travels came to an end and I headed back to the states. But I am back!
Being back on the traveling grind is an exciting and terrifying feat. It was an adventure to get to Florence in more ways than one. The plane ride for one was rough, aisle seats are not for me. It was also a different experience with all of the luggage I had. Such a difference compared to just a single backpack. Packing for two months of travel versus packing for four months of living is so different, needless to say I had a lot of stuff with me.
I arrived to Florence early. I had a few days before orientation which I spent with a couple classmates. I wanted to get a lay of the land before classes and the craziness started. It was a blast to get to know the city day and night. The Italian lifestyle is very different than what we are used to in the States. Late dinners and even later nights. This did not help with the jet lag.
It’s been a great relaxing few days however it is back to reality for me tomorrow. I am so excited for this next chapter of my life!
