Ciao, Firenze!

Hey everyone! I'm sorry that I haven't been able to write anything here in a little while. I arrived in Florence one week ago and it's just been a little hectic between unpacking, jet lag, new classes, and exploring the city.

Florence is so beautiful and there's so much to see. I can't wait for everything to settle down and get into a set schedule so that I can see everything that Florence has to offer. I'm not going to lie, although Florence is really beautiful, I've been pretty homesick. I miss my family a lot because we're all so close but it gets better everyday It's a big change to go from one culture to another and at first it's just a little hard to adjust. The first night was the worst without my family, but, now it's one week later I'm feeling much better than I did when I first got here.

I'm staying in a beautiful apartment with my three roommates Sammi, Maureen, and Carolyn. They're super nice and we get along really well. All you do in your apartment while you're here pretty much is just sleep because there's so much to do whether you're at class, out eating awesome food, or getting lost in the city.

So far, my classes are great and so are my professors. It's really nice because they try to teach you everything about Florence that you don't already know like the best markets to buy food, sights to see or how to order something the right way at a cafe.

I'll upload some pictures soon and I can't wait for you guys to see how beautiful it is here!

I'll write again soon!
