Perfect mix of learning and fun in Florence

Florence with Authentica was honestly the perfect combo of studying and having a great time. The program was super engaging — we got to learn about sustainability and innovation in ways that didn’t feel like “school,” because we were actually visiting places and meeting people doing the real work. It made the concepts click in such a cool way.

And then outside of sessions… it was just pure fun. Exploring the streets of Florence, eating way too much gelato, discovering little cafés, and just hanging out with friends in a city that feels like an open-air museum. The best part was that it never felt too heavy — there was always the right balance between learning and enjoying. I left with new ideas, new memories, and honestly, a new love for Italy.
