    FIVE THINGS I'VE DONE FOR THE FIRST TIME ON EXCHANGE

    Everyone tells you to go on exchange and be yourself, but they also tell you to get out of your comfort zone and say yes to (almost) everything people offer you. Right? Well, I think this is a good point. People need to experience new things in order to talk to others...

    My grandmother's kitchen

    Christmas in Colorado

    Me being in the USA was a 360° experience, but one segment of it that I particularly enjoyed was Christmas, not just Christmas Day but both the months of November and December and why not, even January. I started seeing my host town in a different way. It was magical....

    Mile-High City, Denver CO

    My very first flight overseas was the British Airways London - Denver flight, which means that the first place I have ever been to in the United States of America is Colorado. From Europe, you can also reach Denver straight from Frankfurt if you fly with...

    Great memories of mine

    We know that most of the students go on exchange because they want to party, they want to get wasted or whatever, but sometimes I feel like I need to remind these people that there are more important things in life. During my exchange I learned to appreciate simple...

    Finding myself on exchange

    As everyone says, traveling makes you richer, in many ways. It can change the way you see things, people, and countries. It can teach you things and it can help you find yourself. While I was studying in America, I realized that all these things were true. It is cliché...

    A bit of home abroad

    Even though I was excited to be in America and to do things Americans do, while I was abroad I met up with some Italians. It is kind of like feeling at home to be able to speak your native language after weeks of constant English. So one Saturday of September, after I...

    My first Quinceanera

    Believe it or not, I did not have to go to Mexico to attend my first Quinceanera. In fact, I went to one when I was in the United States of America. One of my really good friends is Mexican and she turned fifteen while I was on exchange so she invited me to her birthday...

    Evening in Pietrasanta

    Having a plan is not suitable for me, having a trip works all the time but I cannot find the right hour, not today, not tomorrow, nor anytime!  So I said to myself, let's go with the flow, even if I had a straight plan (again) in my mind - visiting the city during the...

    I should briefly say that in Italy my high school did not have any kind of balls or dances that students could attend, the only thing we did was studying: no pep rallies, no assemblies, no advising, no Friday night lights. Luckily for me, I was an exchange student in...

    National Western Stock Show Denver

    The National Western Stock Show takes place every year in January at the Denver Coliseum. I went there almost three years ago and by a first impression, it looked like the Fiera Dell'Artigianato in Milan, Italy. The main difference is that this fair is full of stands...

    MY FLIGHT DIARY

    Even though after a few hours I can't feel my butt anymore, I get tired and I want to get out of the aircraft, I love flying. I love when airplanes speed up and eventually take off because I can feel the adrenaline in my body. In the past three years, I took so many...
