Studying abroad in Urbino has been one of the greatest experiences of my life. I have learned so much about all of the various aspects of multimedia, while also growing as a person. Experiencing real Italian culture through the old city of Urbino is something I will never forget. The cobblestone streets and breathtaking countryside views will stick with me forever. All of the people I’ve met here have been so welcoming, which made Urbino feel like home from the moment we arrived. One thing I never could quite get used to was all of the steep hills Urbino had to offer, but that didn’t keep me from walking everywhere to get gelato. As challenging as this program was, I am so appreciative for what it has taught me.
