I have been in touch with some of our students who are in our June programs.  I want to share some of their comments with you:

Things are going good! I have been hanging out with Nikki alot, i love her! She is so fun to be with and so welcoming and helpful. I really enjoy the fact that she speaks fluent english since she is American, but also speaks fluent Italian so she can really help us out when we need to know Italian! Florence is a tough city to get used to, compared to mine back at home. But I am dealing with it well I think. It is starting to get really hot here which is hard also. But Nikki does a good job of keeping us busy and doing things we wouldn't normally do back at home, so I love it. I am excited to go to Verona! Nikki and Marco make it sound amazing. I really enjoy hanging out with Nikki and Marco and their friends. It seems as though Abroadco is the only program through Santa Reparata that is able to show what real Italian life is like. It is also helping me learn Italian more than just through my class. I feel more like an Italian living in Italy rather than just a tourist staying in Italy, and I like that feeling alot more.   - Angela, Florence
