The first photo is a picture taken at the University of Calabria, which is the university we will be making most of our stay at. It’s a nice scenic view of the city and the mountains at the background. Looking at this from day to day brings me gratitude as I think this is a blessing to go study abroad and see these sorts of views and scenes.

The second photo is a photo near the parking of the boats at Tropea. I usually see these in American action movies and seeing it real life feels unreal. Looking at the boats was interesting because they were all different in some way, another thing I wondered was how much money each costed.
