Maymester in Italy
September 03, 2024by: Elizabeth Kohn - United StatesProgram: Summer in Florence (Italy)With CIS Abroad, I had the smoothest experience I could have asked for! Florence was great, and I think the activities they planned for us to get to know each other and the city were really well thought out. From a cruise on the Arno, to the hike to the famous viewpoint across the river, to the yummy gelato and pizza, it was a great experience that CIS Abroad planned for us. Not to mention, the accommodation was great; it’s hard to beat rooftop pool and gym!
