I thought la
st week of June would be the end of my time in Italy, but I was wrong! As a class, we briefly visited Venice a couple weeks ago to see the Biennale. It was an amazing experience; however, we were only there for a day and a half, and I was not able to experience much of Venice. Because of this, my parents decided to help me extend my trip and meet me in Venice! This way, I was able to relax after finals, have fun, and share Italy with my family!
y when I left Rome. It was stressful and very difficult, but I was able to find a way to the train station when my ride fell through, navigate 4 different forms of transportation alone with a month’s worth of luggage, and found my way around Venice alone when my parents had flight issues and arrived a day late.
I absolutely fell in love with Venice, and I am very grateful to have a family that has a passion for traveling. Exploring and studying in Italy has been one of, if not the greatest experiences of my life. I have grown so much and learned so much about myself, art, and adapting to a different culture. I have previously shared film and digital photos in Rome, so I will do the same for Venice. I hope anyone who reads this enjoys the photos and is as fascinated by Venice as I am!
