It is now Friday, the week has flown by. It is our last day of class and the realization that our time here is almost over hits us. This was our last day of class in which we discussed VARIOUS controversial topics being debating in our world internationally every day. Closing our class time at … Continue reading Vatican Museum and the Sistene Chapel! by Cheyenne Lake →

Sadly, we are starting to feel the end of the trip approaching. We had our last day of class today, discussing the role of women and their rights in our respective countries. It is amazing to see how lucky I am to be a woman who lives in America, compared to the rights of women … Continue reading Do As The Romans Do by Mikayla Bridges →

Today the excitement picked back up. It was our last day of class in the class room. We didn’t have anything planned for the early afternoon so after class and lunch we were able to go out into town and shop around for a few hours. It was kind of disappointing because around ninety eight … Continue reading On the sixth day of Italy~ by Benjamin Cheaney →

In today’s class, we talked about embassies and their purposes, including their pros and cons. Seen in the fact I slept through five alarms this morning, I was extremely tired today and fell into a deep sleep during the 10 minute break between classes. After being shaken awake, we began our UN discussion on drug … Continue reading Another Great Day!! by Mikayla Bridges →

Today was my first day in Rome and after 11 hours of flying to get there and not sleeping on the plane, the only site I wanted to see was the bed but then I saw that Saint Peters Cathedral was 3 minutes away from us. That kind of made it hard to think about … Continue reading Day one: That sounds nice but in what direction is the bed I will be sleeping in? by Christian Bean →

After class and lunch, we took a bus to meet Agnes, who would be our tour guide for that day. Our … Continue reading My Birthday in Italy! by Lily Gayton →

Today during class, we talked about genocide issues in multiple countries. It’s sad to say that nobody could come up with a solution. Especially since the government is the main leader behind genocides. It was an afternoon full of education. We rode the public bus to the Jewish Ghettos. The bus ride was interesting because … Continue reading Different Religions by Cassidy Slockett →

Today we went to see the Coliseum and the other ruins around it. It’s so hard to explain what it is like in the Coliseum, but for starters it was defiantly smaller than most pictures make it out to be. Not in a bad way but in a “huh I wonder how they did navel … Continue reading Day two: where did all my pictures run off to? by Christian Bean →

Today was so exciting. We’ve only been here for two days but it has felt so much longer. We went to the Colosseum today after lunch I was surprised because you came out of the metro and it was right there, immediately in your face, nothing else blocking your view. You’d imagine it to be … Continue reading On the second day of Italy~ by Benjamin Cheaney →
