Roma!

The last few days have been a bit of a blur due to my lack of sleep & complete exhaustion from walking everywhere.. we have a half an hour walk to class !! As far as my classes are concerned...

Mon-Thurs from 12:30-3 International Nutrition Education and Program Planning

*This class only lasts until the end of May. It's extremely interesting to me and may become my       specific area of interest with Nutrition but I'm still not sure. My Professor has traveled all around the world with a specific organization, creating programs for individuals who are severely malnourished.

Tues & Thurs from 3-5 Explorations in Italian Architecture and Urban Form

*This is basically the sightseeing course. We've already been inside the Pantheon, Coloseum and the Forum thus far. The length of the course will be the length of my stay here in Rome. Some of the other places we are going are the Trevi Fountain, Pompei, Paestum, Pienza, Firenze, Modena and various churches.

We've had some delicious food over the past few days...
Picture 1: Pizza ! with some strange meat on it (I think it's pork). I just picked a random pizza on the menu that I couldn't pronounce and this was the product!
Picture 2: Caprese-- absolutely delicious
Picture 3: Vegetarian Sandwich-- olives, artichokes, lettuce & other
Picture 4: Pistachio Gelato

Also got risotto at a restaurant but I was pretty disappointed.. I had the impression that it would be the best I've ever had but our Professor said that it's best in Venice.

Here some more pictures!
