study abroad italy
purpose:
Undergraduate semester abroad in Italy during the summer of 2007. Our group began the trip with a week in Florence followed by a month in Rome. We then traveled to northern Italy where we visited Venice, Vicenza and Como. This was a valuable experience to explore, first hand, the environment these historic masterpieces exist. During the trip I studied contextual relationships and developed my photography and sketching skills while documenting the experience. This is one of the most memorable experiences of my life and was a great addition to my undergraduate studies at the University of Maryland.
