Title: Study Abroad Revisited (Pic heavy) Post by: lazylightnin717 on July 16, 2011, 11:44:42 AM Today I had a bunch of time on my hands. I decided to take a look through my library of photos and revisited my time I spent in Italy. I studied at L'Accademia Italiana in Florence. The program was so so but the experience was unforgettable. I strongly suggest study abroad to any student that has the opportunity.
There is a story behind every one of these pictures. Maybe you've been to these places and have your own stories. Either way, I hope you all enjoy the photos as much as I do. Santa Croce (http://i784.photobucket.com/albums/yy130/rappevan/DSC_0002.jpg) Can't remember the name of this particular building but it was beautiful (http://i784.photobucket.com/albums/yy130/rappevan/DSC_0016.jpg) The obligatory Venice shot (http://i784.photobucket.com/albums/yy130/rappevan/DSC_0044_fix.jpg) (http://i784.photobucket.com/albums/yy130/rappevan/DSC_0054.jpg) A traveling companion and I in Lucca (http://i784.photobucket.com/albums/yy130/rappevan/DSC_0059.jpg) My roommate and I found the quarries outside of Florence in Fiesole.

I'd like to get back to Italy now that I'm not in the 7th grade. That was the last time I was there.
Oddly enough, I the bus driver for an Italian group starting next week. JM Title: Re: Study Abroad Revisited (Pic heavy) Post by: zarn02 on July 17, 2011, 08:56:02 AM Nice pics. I'd love to go to Italy. [thumbsup]

Cool pics. [thumbsup] Cinque Terre was such a beautiful place with five small towns perched on the coast overlooking the sea. I hiked the entire Via Dell'Amore with a great group of friends visiting all five towns. Definitely a place everyone should see in their lifetime. |
