Italy

A country of history, legends, culture and of course food.

Half my family is from the beautiful island of Sicily off the boot of the Italian Peninsula. I’ve had the opportunity to visit Sicily a couple of times, and it’s surely a place that I am proud to be connected to.

In the beginning of 2020, I studied abroad in the wonderful city of Rome.

It was an experience that I will cherish for the rest of my life. Being able to walk from my student apartment to such amazing sights such as the Vatican, Castel Sant'Angelo and more was such a beautiful thing.

My time there was cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic, and although I was only able to live in Italy for a couple months, I know I will go back and live in Rome again one day.
