So I havent been able to post since I have been in Florence due to not having internet in my apartment. Hopefully, I should have internet by today or tomorrow. Since I have been here, I have been so busy trying to find my way around the city as well as getting necessary paperwork and what not for the school. During the weekend, we had orientation that was basically walks around the city showing us where everything was and showing us the main buildings. I have also been consumed with adjusting to the time difference as well as the culture of Italians. Everything here is more simple from the appliances in the apartment to way things are handled. Although there are many differences in the culture of Italians from that of the US, I am loving my experience and cant wait for what is to come. I should have pictures of my apartment and what not soon!
