Rachel in Roma: We could look like the Venus de Milo (and other valuable lessons I learned in Paris)
http://rachelmcdinroma.blogspot.com/2011/04/we-could-look-like-venus-de-milo-and.html
Wednesday, April 6, 2011. We could look like the Venus de Milo (and other valuable lessons I learned in Paris). This past weekend was the second long weekend built into my abroad program's schedule for the semester. Two friends and I went to Paris for the weekend, and a friend of mine from Bowdoin (Nicole) joined us. Paris was the first place in Europe I ever went, way back in 4th grade (11 years ago! What did I discover? Lunch was french onion soup (check that off the list! They also had a self serve wh...

Rachel in Roma: March 2011
http://rachelmcdinroma.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 1, 2011. Well I'm back to blogging after a few weeks hiatus. That just goes to show that I was spending time out and about exploring the city, rather than in my room writing about it! Basically, Venice is a fairyland. It's hard to imagine until you get there, but it is just this big, fantastical maze of waterways, canals, bridges and narrow alleyways. People dress up in homemade, highly decorative costumes, pausing often to invite onlookers to photograph them. We soon discovered that a...

Rachel in Roma: Rose Colored Glasses
http://rachelmcdinroma.blogspot.com/2011/02/i-decided-earlier-this-week-that-i.html
Thursday, February 3, 2011. While I was painting an elderly Italian woman started trying to tell me something about the church. I was simultaneously ecstatic that she was actually speaking in Italian (most people here automatically jump to english without even giving us a chance) and struck by how ridiculous it was that I didn't even remember how to tell her I didn't understand. Hopefully that will change. All-in-all a really good morning. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Balkan Adventure, pt. 2.

Rachel in Roma: Who knew getting coffee could be so stressful??
http://rachelmcdinroma.blogspot.com/2011/02/who-knew-getting-coffee-could-be-so.html
Tuesday, February 1, 2011. Who knew getting coffee could be so stressful? Not me. You think Starbucks is stressful? Si" I nod confidently. Freddo. It's with ice," he responds, questioning my knowledge and judgement. Si, si.". He's still frowning at me, looking doubtful, as I mumble something in English about it being warm outside. Alas, I'm still learning. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Fo11ow Through: 2011 in Photographs. Balkan Adventure, pt. 2. Just Your Average Saturday in Tivoli.

Rachel in Roma: February 2011

Friday, February 11, 2011. Just Your Average Saturday in Tivoli. Other highlights of the week:. Sunday: Randomly took a stroll down Via del Corso and happened upon a Chinese New Year's celebration. Talk about Rome being a cosmopolitan city. Monday: Planned the trip to Tivoli for Saturday. Tuesday: Got to go to the restoration labs at the Vatican Museums in my art conservation class. Later, that night we walked down to the Trevi Fountain. It's sooo beautiful the way it's lit up at night. While I was paint...
