Hey everyone — I’m a U.S. student in my final year of uni trying to figure out where to go for a semester abroad, and I’m stuck between going to Sydney for 3 months in the summer or Florence in the fall.

College credits aren’t an issue, I’m more so looking for a fulfilling experience I’ll remember and enjoy with new friends! Also a chance to go hiking and explore nature.

Im interested in Florence for its cultural landmarks and beautiful architecture. Since I’m half Sicilian I’d also love to connect more to my roots. Im not interested in traveling around Europe much, only to England to visit some family members and Switzerland to hike. I love nature and I’d prefer being outside instead of touristy spots, besides art museums.

I guess what I’m asking is, from an Italian perspective, would I get what I want out of studying there? If you‘ve lived in Australia I’d appreciate your perspective as well.

Im interested in Australia because I am a huge hiker (love nature), and being near the beach. I’d love to try surfing, and maybe rock climbing. Expensive night life is not too big of issue for me, since I’d rather spend more time outdoors. I also go to uni in an area of the US that has some pretty depressing winters I’d like to avoid in the summer here lol.
