WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE CLASS WHILE ABROAD, AND WHY? (IF YOU INTERNED ABROAD YOU CAN USE THIS SPACE TO TELL US ABOUT YOUR INTERNSHIP EXPERIENCE IF YOU PREFER)
My favorite class was The Great Masters because we got to go to museums every week. I knew I wanted to take a class where I could go in to see all the art that Florence. I loved my teacher, Katharina Giraldi, and my classmates that I met. We loved getting to see new things and sharing those experiences together.
HOW DID YOU ENGAGE WITH THE LOCAL COMMUNITY WHILE ABROAD?
I engaged in the community by engaging in the activities that CEA provided for us, such as going on food tours, going to futbol games, and playing on the soccer team. It is important to engage in the community and branch out of your comfort zone to get to know the area you are in. You can meet new people to do it with, but also get a different perspective of life through understanding the culture.
