As the nervous excitement builds, I look forward to spending
my Summer I semester in Sardinia. I am hoping for a more relaxed and slower
paced lifestyle while there. I am expecting much better food, coming in the form of fish
and pasta. I hope that the locals are friendly towards us visitors but I would understand
where they were coming from if they did come off as being a bit “cold”.
It is definitely going to be very different living in a
different country for a month. While I did study Italian in high school
I am still learning to understand the relatively quick
speaking native Italians. I would ultimately like to be able to learn the local
customs and try to fit in as best as possible.
I hope to see how different societies deal with their environmental
and waste problems as well as see how their culture functions and hopefully we
can bring back what we learn while in Italy to use in our everyday life or as
we go out into the work force as engineers.
