What were you grateful for this week?Beautiful and supportive friendships being made. What was the most challenging part of this week? Breaking up the kids fighting. 

Tell us about a “wow” moment you had this week. Helped my mom clean up while she was last minute getting her kids ready to leave for a weekend trip. 

Tell us about your week! This week went by fast, another Rome Abroad Traveler came to Rome for a few days early and then we were going to go to Vienna Austria. So on Friday my host mom came home early and told me they were leaving in 30 minutes for Milan so I was free earlier than usual. So I put myself together and met up with a Rome Abroad traveler for dinner. She was staying at a hostel and met a feel other girls. One was from Chicago! So it was nice to have someone from my home place out here. We went to dinner in Trastevere and went out for the night! I still haven’t learned my lesson of not going out for the night when I have an early flight. So I almost slept through my alarm but I powered through, rushed a lot, and got to the airport! 

This weekend we spent our time in Vienna, Austria. I booked a hotel for two other travelers and I and it had a rooftop pool! Which was so much fun! Austria somehow was hotter than Italy! We visited some awesome classy cafes, went to the Belvedere, looked at incredible art, and ate amazing food! We spent our last night drinking bottles of wine, dancing and singing to ABBA and the Mamma Mia soundtrack at the top of our lungs, and took aesthetically pleasing candid polaroids.
