Ciao! After returning home to the States a couple of weeks ago, I find myself constantly reflecting on my time abroad. I am so amazed and blessed to have done all that I did, and I am excited to share the final installation of my time in Florence with you all!

Buongiorno! It’s Alex again, and I just wanted to say welcome to the second installment of my adventures abroad in Florence. I am happy to say that a LOT has happened since my last post. Before we go full swing into midterms, I thought I would just recap all the amazing and unique opportunities I have had these past few weeks.

Ciao! My name is Alex, and, this fall, I have the privilege to blog on behalf of Stern about my semester abroad in Florence, Italy! A little about me: I am a Sophomore concentrating in Marketing and Finance, I am originally from Great Falls, Virginia (suburb of Washington D.C.), and I hope to incorporate my loves of fashion and food into my future career. That being said, what better place for me to study than in the country that embodies those very two things!
