Hi there! My name is Stephenie, and I’m majoring in International Studies. For this fall I’m spending my time learning Italian in Perugia, Italy at the University for Foreigners. I have little experience abroad, so coming to Italy was a big step for me. But despite all the struggles from culture shock to language barriers, I hope to gain a lot from my experience in Italy. Aside from eating amazing gelato and exploring hidden nooks and crannies of the city, I’d love to come back with a better grasp on Italian and more confidence traveling. You can read all about my journey on this blog, where I’ll document everything from cultural shock to new adventures. I’ll be covering the good, the bad, and the ugly of my journey, but no matter the subject you can expect to get some laughs along the way.
