Hi! My name is Sydney, I’m 21 years old, and a senior at Florida State University. Since I can remember, I’ve always been passionate about traveling and seeing the world. In between my sophomore and junior of college, I studied abroad for six weeks in Florence, Italy. Before leaving, I tried to learn as much as possible about the city, culture, language (which prompted me to take 3 semesters of Italian), and life abroad.
This was my first time traveling outside of the U.S. and I completely fell in love with life abroad and the beautiful city of Florence. It was an experience that completely changed my life. They were the happiest and most transformative six weeks of my life and I took every opportunity to live “la dolce vita.” I traveled to different countries, met incredible people (from FSU and other travelers), and ate the most delicious food. This kickstarted my desire to live abroad and travel.
After graduation, I’ll be heading over the pond to continue my studies at the University of Westminster’s Multimedia Journalism (Print and Online) MA program. Follow me as I document my travels, life abroad, and everything in between!
