Rome: Do ItI was very close to not coming on my study abroad program because I thought I would be missing out on too much at school in Berkeley, but I am so happy that I went. It was definitely the best and most rewarding semester of my life. This was my first time out of the country and it was definitely the best way to experience it. ... |

Ciao Roma Bella! Until We Meet AgainI learned a lot about myself and how independent I can be. I look at the world from a different persepective now and have realized not to sweat the little things in life. |

Italy Was Hands Down The Best Experience Of My Life Thus FarI came back with Italy with an entirely renewed perspective. It was hard transitioning back to real life at first but ultimately the experience was well worth it. I have re-evaluated my goals and what I want out of life and I feel that the Italians' general easygoing and carefree attitude has had a positive effect on me. I becam... |

Rome: Bring Your Big Girl Pants (Grow Up & Out Of Your Jeans)COMPLETELY. I have been back for a month and a half and I still don't realize where I went. I traveled through multiple European countries and got to meet amazing people. I will never forget my time abroad. It will be something I can reflect on for the rest of my life. |

A Part Of Me Became Italian, And All Of Me Came Back A Better Person.My experience abroad has opened my mind to new people, languages, and daily challenges of communication. I have learned about different customs, to adapt, to be more independent, and to react outside of my comfort zone. I have grown as a person, and from my first time abroad I have gained confidence to do this a few more times. ... |

When In Rome; Definitely Do As The Romans Do!I learned many things with AIFS Rome. I learned that to really know about someone you have to give them the chance to show you their life and culture. You must live as they do in order to understand their views on life. By immersing yourself in the culutre of a country is how your knowledge of things grows, when you get out of h... |
