Italy has got to be the most beautiful place on earth &#8211; beautiful institutions, beautiful scenery, beautiful atmosphere, beautiful language, and certainly beautiful men! Today, was our first day in class, even the University is beautiful. We mainly discussed differences internationally and conflicts that happen. One of the main differences all over the world that causes conflict is religion and cultural differences, both of which are seen if I walk right out of the hotel doors. Italy, Rome especially, as a primarily Catholic country, has a much different religious culture than say the Middle East or even than America.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow we are debating global warming, acting as if we were each a different country and its views, that should be interesting. Today, however, we did do some exciting things! We toured the Coliseum and the Forum, both alike were astounding. My favorite part of the Forum was Julius Cesar&#8217;s alter, how crazy is it that they still place flowers there?! The trip is already going too fast. Closing the night is bitter-sweet &#8211; sad to be inside and miss even a minute of the Italian atmosphere, but so thankful to just lie down for a moment and catch my breath! It is much different than America, so full and pumping at all times. Very nice and courteous people who are here to share their home with foreigners and welcome us with helping hands which is always appreciated. So far Rome, Italy its self at that, seems like a fantastic place to live. I love it here, maybe the Romans will see me here in two years for college&#8230; \ud83d\ude42 On a concluding note, there is one thing I can say without a doubt, no hesitation at all, it is clear as water &#8211; ITALIANS ARE CRAZY DRIVERS!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our first full day in Rome from waking up in the morning to crashing at night.
