la citta bella

Mar 29, 2012

The city is great, everything is in walking distance and I felt really safe. The food is to die for, you can avoid spending a lot by going to the local places. Classes were challenging but I was still able to enjoy the sights and live like a local.

I Highly Recommend Studying Abroad

Mar 16, 2012

Studying abroad is something that I will always hold close as a special experience in my life. I learned many life lessons begin abroad. Living in a city, by myself, cooking, cleaning, and traveling on my own, were all things that I was not used to before going abroad. Not to mention, I had never left the United States before studying in Italy.

Being in Florence was incredible. The staff in my program and at school (LdM) were all extremely helpful in aiding my positive experience. I always felt I had someone to turn to if a problem arose, I had any questions, or just needed someone to talk to. Everyone was welcoming and very kind.

I would highly recommend studying abroad to anyone remotely close to being interested in broadening their horizons of culture, art, history, and life itself. It is an incredible experience.

Why did you decide to study abroad at LdM in Florence, Italy?

I was a history minor and heard great things about Florence. Due to certain preservation laws the city looks much like it once did hundreds of years ago. You won't see large buildings and paved streets. Coming from NYC, Florence or Firenze sounded like a welcome treat.

What made your study abroad experience unique and special?

I went abroad with a few friends from college who are still my good friends today. Being able to live abroad really opens your mind to what else is out there. I would advise every student to study abroad. It helps you gain a much better perspective of what is out there. There is also something very special about learning about a place while actually living there.

How has this experience impacted your future?

Studying abroad helped me to become more independent and also helped shape my vision of the world. It was a wonderful experience.

Gelato festival is April should be enough to get your attention, but this won't be the only thing that keeps you coming back for more. Florence sits in the Tuscany region and is regarded for its artistic history and worldly views.
