Nice, France is a city that was quite aptly named.
From the minute we got off the plane, we were surrounded by blue waters, palm trees, and mountains covered in little houses. Ever since I did a project on the Cote D'azure in seventh grade French class, I have wanted to visit the area, and finally my dream was fulfilled. While the original plan was to spend three days in each city, the price difference in flights ended up being pretty large, and we were only in Nice for one full day and one afternoon. Even so, this was one of my favorite locations I have ever visited. I absolutely cannot wait to return and explore more of what the southern coast of France has to offer, but for now, here are the top ten tips from our time in Nice!

It's a nice day for a trip to Rome...
When planning for study abroad, my list of cities I wanted to visit quickly became enormous, and impossible to achieve in a single semester. With this realization, I made a list of my top five locations that I wanted to see the most - among them: Rome, Nice, and Barcelona. This past week, I got a chance to go on a ten day trip around these three cities with two friends from Rochester and one friend from my classes here at DIS. Our first stop: Rome. I'm lucky enough to have a friend from Rochester studying abroad there, who was able to show us some of her favorite places. The weekend was packed with carbs, gelato, and my complete amazement at the Colosseum. Here are my top ten tips for how to make the most of your trip to Rome! We're not in Copenhagen anymore...This past weekend, I took my first trip outside of Denmark since my arrival - to Berlin, Germany! Many people know Berlin as the home of the infamous Berlin Wall, copious amounts of graffiti, and giant steins of beer. While these are all very prominent elements of the city that I did get to experience, my stay was defined more by Schnitzel, foggy views, and the best meal of my entire earthly existence...interspersed with intense frustration that nobody seems to accept a credit card. As a confused American who has been spoiled rotten by the incredible livability of Copenhagen, there were a few key differences that I wish I had known about beforehand.
