当朋友时该去哪里 and 留学期间的探亲 in 弗洛伦斯, 意大利
我知道我想这么做 宝博体育 我的一生! 上大学之前,我从未离开过美国. 有很多东西要看, 探索, 找到, and LEARN out in the world and I wanted (and still want) to see as much as I can, 所以我才选择这么做 佛罗伦萨留学 这学期!
My friend Ben from my university in the US visited me in 弗洛伦斯.
然而,我的很大一部分 身份 is the love and support of my family and my closest friends! I’ve always been quiet, independent, and serious, and 交朋友 这对我来说并不容易. My friends are so dear to me and have been with me through so much! My parents have also been so encouraging of my dreams to 旅行 and 宝博体育.

Walking with new friends in Interlaken, Switzerland, on a weekend trip.
I met Bella, my best friend in the whole world, at a job lifeguarding at my university in Utah. 我就无法完成工作(因此), saving up for 宝博体育) or life in general without her, 我每天都想念她! She is a big p艺术 of my 身份 because she pushes me every day to work harder, 研究, 学习, 旅行, 找到快乐!
We were able to go to Greece together when she came to 弗洛伦斯 as well, further allowing me to 探索 my passions of 旅行, 艺术, 还有和一个对我很重要的人的过去. Bella and another friend (also pictured) Ben both came to visit me and getting the chance to 旅行, 探索, and show them around a city that has become a p艺术 of me was amazing.

However, as I mentioned, 交朋友 was always hard for me. St艺术ing in a new country, school, or continent, was scary, but it has pushed me so much! 我在学校交了新朋友, but also on trips such as in 爱尔兰 where I made a lifelong friend in Laura, who wasn’t even a person in my program but someone that I met outside of it.
