CEA CAPA Experience

My time with CEA in Florence was incredible. The support from staff was consistent and very helpful, the classes were full of culture and learning opportunities, and there were plenty of program activities to participate in. The only downside of the program was the housing. I was put in a rather small apartment for 7 girls, the kitchen was difficult to fit food and had limited space when cooking. I was also far away from the city center in my classes, at first it was a problem to me and I wasn't used to walking 30 minutes everyday. However, when I spent a few weeks establishing a routine I was able to be comfortable where I live and created relationships with locals around me. The only thing I'd change is my living situation, other than that I had a wonderful time.
