Day 27

       Today was our last day in Firenze. This morning we took our Italian language final, which surprisingly was not too bad. For the first time ever, I was really sad to end class today. Even though, Italian was difficult, I really enjoyed getting a taste of it. At the end of class, we thanked all the staff at the school and showed them our appreciation with small presents. You could really see how much the staff cared about us, for they were all sad to see us go. The feeling was definitely mutual and felt across the room by both parties. While, I am very sad to leave Firenze, I am starting to get excited for the Euro trip I am about to partake in. About 5 of us from the program will spend an extended two and half weeks in Europe, hitting 3 countries and 6 cities. I have a lot of exciting things ahead of me!

        For my last day in Firenze, I made sure to get a grande cup of gelato and indulge in a nice grande pizza. Hopefully, I will still have room for our farewell dinner tonight hosted by the school. This pretty much sums up my day.

        I wanted to take the time in this post to thank everyone who has actively been reading my blog this past month. I would not have a successful blog without the support of my followers. Ya’ll kept me going and made me eager to write more! I hope I kept ya’ll entertained and interested in my life here in Firenze. Unfortunately, this will be my last post being that I do not know when I’ll have internet access over the next few weeks and/or much time to write a blog everyday. I will try to leave updates on Facebook when I can. Thanks again for everyone’s support!
