Took a train out to Tivoli, about an hour out of the city, to check out Hadrian’s Villa and Villa d’Este.

Hadrian was one of the Good Roman emperors (117 to 138 AD) and he built the villa as his retreat complex.

I&#39;m currently studying Architecture and minoring in Urban and Regional Planning (which has me even more excited to study abroad in Rome with its rich architectural history). As a lover of art, food, and adventure, I look forward to delving into the dynamic Italian culture and sharing my experiences!</span></p>
