Italy: Italian Odyssey – Rome, Florence & Venice (June 30 – July 9, 2025)

Thanks for the checking out the blog for this Global Leadership Adventures program!

Here are a few things to know and expect:

  1. Blog posts are written by onsite program staff and/or students and sent to our Headquarters team who will post the blog on this page.
  2. We typically receive 2-3 blog updates per week from each program, so please don’t be alarmed if you don’t see a blog post every day – that’s totally normal.
  3. Blog updates received late in the evening or overnight will be posted the following day.
  4. Blog updates received on weekends may not be posted until Monday.
  5. Due to many factors such as internet accessibility, program staff aren’t always able to send photos, so some blog posts may contain text only.

Thank you for your patience and understanding, and we hope you enjoy following along on these unforgettable adventures.

BLOG POST FOR JUNE 30

Dearest Readers,

Our program is officially underway. We could not be more excited. Rome is absolutely beautiful, and it is only the first of many stops during our Italian odyssey. The group has all arrived and has already started to make friends. We spent the afternoon playing games, exploring the area around the hotel, and getting to know each other.

The weather is warm, the air smells like flowers, and the streets are full of people exploring the gem of the city that is Rome. Tomorrow we are going to the colosseum to follow in the steps of the ancients. We are going to do a food tour as well. We already know that it is going to be delicious.

Over the next nine days, we are going to be updating you about our adventures every two to three days. The students are excited to practice their photography and blog writing skills. Keep your eyes open for our next blog. It’s going to be a good one.

Ciao,

Your GLA Staff Team
