So I just got back from possibly the best 2 weeks ever. I went to Rome for a few days and then went on a 7 day cruise that went through Italy, France, and Spain. It was by far such an interesting and fun vacation and a great way to end my summer before I start college in 3 weeks!
The cruise was one of my favorite part because even though at least half of the ship were Italian, I had fun hanging out and communicating with a diverse amount of people. I hanged out with this Italian guy and when we first started talking he did not understand me at all, but on the last night we were able to communicate very well and he told me that I really helped him with English and that he is amazed how we were able to communicate. I also met people from Canada and Israel who I hanged out and talked to.
I was able to see a lot of the famous sites in Spain and Italy. However, my favorite part had to be meeting the locals and trying to speak in Spanish and understand Italian. For the most part the people were friendly and I had a fun time. I learned about the socio-culture in Italians too. How they dress and why they dress that way and how it is popular for the youths to smoke everyday
This trip opened my eyes more to the diverse amount of people and their backgrounds. I can't wait to go back.
