Overall reflection of the trip

No words can accurately describe the effect this trip has had on me. I enjoyed seeing the landmarks of Ancient Rome and various other tourist spots, but honestly, just spending time with everyday Rome taught me the most. Rome isn't just a city comprised of structural antiquities; it's a thriving city and should be viewed as such.

Removing my self from my comfort zone and into the culture of another country was very rewarding. I learned more about my way of life than I every would in the States.

Such a place of beauty and art cannot be fully appreciated in eight days. There are many things of which I am uncertain, but I am certain that someday, I will return to Rome.
