So I've been in Europe for about 10 days now and it's been a great experience so far. I was nervous about getting on all the flights by myself, especially since I hadn't flown in so long, but the whole international flight experience was alright (except for my 12 hour layover in the Rome airport which was almost unbearable). The first weekend we did an orientation for school that showed us a lot of the nearby attractions in Malta, including this beautiful Cathedral, and lots of views of the Mediterranean. We then went to a nearby island with my roommate's mom which had the most beautiful viewpoint I have ever seen:
I've since been to a couple of beaches around the area, and we went to Sicily this weekend! It was one of the longest day trips of my life (5AM - midnight) but it was well worth it. We took a ferry ride across the Mediterranean and visited a couple of towns in the southern side of Sicily and hiked up Mt. Etna (a volcano)! This week is going to be pretty busy with activities and school, but we still have this weekend to finish up our tour of Malta before we have to go home next weekend!
Living in the Mediterranean for 3 weeks is wonderful, by the way :)
