Staying in a great place, in the heart of Florence and meeting many great people made this experience amazing. One thing that wasn't the best was what I was doing for my internship. The environment and setting were fantastic but the work seemed repetitive and unimportant. However, I have heard the opposite from others in the program. Overall, living the Italian life, travelling all over Italy, and meeting all kinds of people made this a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I recommend to anyone who has the chance to do it.

I have loved working with Rosella Cavioni at Cavioni Milano. The material she is teaching me and working firsthand with the clients is very fulfilling.

Overall, this experience has been really great. I loved the first two weeks of the Italian language crash course. I wish we had more time to do it. My internship took some getting used to but that was a given. Our Location Coordinators were absolutely wonderful. They gave us so much advice and made the group events a blast. They made the experience so enjoyable and made the whole process of coming to Milan and finding our way much easier.

What made my experience is great was how organize and caring the staff of AIFS were. I like that choosing a homestay with a host family was an option. I develop a good relationship with my host mother and father.

I liked all the excursions and the staff, Rome was a great city to study in

I really appreciated how AIFS made accommodations when we arrived to make our transition into Rome smooth. I also enjoyed all the cultural activities that the program set up!

The people really made it great. I think there’s a good level of independence from the program itself and then dependency. It was nice to know that I could always ask questions to the AIFS staff when needed. There were a good balance of planned tours and excursions that allowed you to see parts of the city that would otherwise be expensive.

This program was a great opportunity. I learned a lot about Roman history in my classes. I also enjoyed going on the excursions to sorrento and Florence and doing the cultural activities. These opportunities allowed me to see a lot of Italy and learn more about the culture here .
