In the short time I’ve spent here, I have realized that coming to Urbino is one of the best decisions I have ever made. I came into this trip expecting a small, boring town and was surprised with a buzzing city, full of life and rich culture. I am surrounded by beautiful scenery, both architectural and environmental, as well as a culture foreign to mine that has sparked my desire to travel and explore. Urbino is a city that always has something going on, a way to unite their citizens, and easily helps you immerse yourself into it. This program is special to me because it allows for personal time with your mentors to help you grow individually and build a connection with them that’s not common in a normal classroom setting. I have learned so much not only from the classes themselves, but also by being forced to step out of my comfort zone. I am so incredibly excited to apply all the skills I’ve gained while abroad to my studies, career, and life in general.
