Day two of Rome was another action filled day. It started out with a pasta making class with a side of tiramisu and of course wine. I went with my friends Lauren, Morgan, and Brittany. Rome is a new world for me and not knowing too much Italian doesn't help. We made an adventure out of it however and finally made it to the class. Francesco greeted us at the door and first thing he said was, "Get a glass of wine and we cook!" This was one of the coolest experiences and Francesco was a great teacher and a pleasure to be around. He taught us so much about how to make fettuccini and ravioli. I won't say I was good but I will say it's a working progress and I will definitely be recreating it at home.
Once the class was over with we headed over to the trevi fountain. I cannot get enough of this beautiful structure and how popular it is. This was one of my favorite days in Rome so far. Ciao, Sydney

Landing in Rome was the excitement of it all. Once we got there we were already so exhausted but thrilled for the safe arrival. We headed over to our Hotel Orlanda and got ready for a day of exploring. First stop was none other than the colosseum. The photos may be one thing but actually being there was breathtaking. The structure is stunning and almost 2,000 years old. We all traveled around Rome on our first day there together. We brought a little buffalo along with us as well.... Brittany brought a buffalo bills flag from home. From there we went to the Vatican. This is the home of the Pope. The line to get into the basilica was at least a mile long.

AuthorSalve! I am an Exceptional Education major with a concentration in English. I am also just finishing up my student teaching for the fall semester. I am beyond lucky and grateful to be traveling to Torremaggiore! I will use my experience from being in the classroom and bring it with me to Italy. This will be my first time studying abroad and I cannot wait to meet the kids. It has been a dream of mine to teach in Italy and it is just around the corner. I hope to teach as much as I can for the period I am there and learn all about the culture. Being able to have this opportunity will help me grow as a teacher and will open up my eyes to a new way of teaching. ArchivesCategories |
