Meet Elyssa and Conley, two CMU students studying abroad in Florence, Italy! 🇮🇹❤️

Elyssa, a Recreation and Event Management major, and Conley, a sophomore majoring in Secondary Education with a focus in History, are spending the semester immersing themselves in Italian culture, meeting people from around the world, and exploring everything Florence has to offer.

For Elyssa, studying abroad has been an incredible opportunity for personal and professional growth, while Conley has especially loved exploring the city, meeting new people, and experiencing Italian culture.

Two students, one amazing city, and plenty of memories being made! 🌍✨

Fire up Chips, all the way from Florence! 🔥

Ever think of studying abroad? Central Michigan Life reporter Beth Nocerini shares her experience studying abroad at an animal life rescue center in North Sulawesi, Indonesia.

"This study abroad was perfect chaos, from the monkeys to the many volunteers," Nocerini said. "If you are ever thinking of doing a study abroad, do it. If you are thinking of doing an unconventional one, absolutely do it."

Culture shock is a normal part of studying abroad! ✈️🌎

Spend an afternoon with Kaitlyn studying abroad in Florence. ☀️🎨 

A cappuccino on the walk to class, learning in the heart of Florence, lunch with roommates, then ending the day painting by the river as the sun goes down. It’s the little moments that make this experience so special. 

What would your perfect day studying abroad look like? 💛
