I only have two more weeks left here and I am starting to get so sad! I am definitely ready to come home, but there are so many things I will miss about this city and the program. I thought for my last blog post in the city that I would write a list of things I have been thankful for this semester, in case any future student needs a little push to come here (DO IT!!) <\/p>\n\n\n\n
-Seeing the view of Circus Maximus every time I step out of the metro on my way back to the convent. A simple reminder of the beauty and history of where I am<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-Having an amazing group of people to spend Thanksgiving with, making it one of the best Thanksgivings I have ever had, even without my family. (The nuns made us turkey with literal sparklers in it and an American flag on the wall)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-The opportunity to see a new museum or church literally every single day. I have seen more art this semester than I have seen collectively in my entire life. I am so lucky!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-The ability to learn the language enough to have a conversation in full Italian with the bartenders at my new favorite coffee shop that just opened down the hill from us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
-The feeling of pure happiness when everyone comes to lunch on Mondays after a weekend of traveling and being apart from each other. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
-Aisha!! The convent cat! She makes the cold days a little bit warmer \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Thank you for all these things and more, Roma! Can’t wait to spend 14 more days soaking it all up. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
