These pictures were taken in Spain, Italy, Greece and Albania in that order. After the semester was over I thought some more travelling throughout my dear Mediterranean was in order and so here we have this final post. I had a blast visiting my relatives in all these places, ate aplenty and made some great memories. I almost didn’t have time to miss my time in Salamanca, almost.

My one true love is my team: Juventus and while most days I'm a completely rational being, there's a 2-hour window during the weekend where I am lost in the joy of fandom. I also play intramural soccer, with semi-finals being the best result so far (fingers-crossed for finals next year!!!!). Always a fan of arguing, I can also be spotted challenging people's beliefs or stances on a daily basis to spark interesting conversations. Never an avid reader, but more of a picky one, my favourite genre is historical fiction, preferably pre-medieval. Another hobby is singing which I do aloofly around people, so much so that I ended up singing for the Gospel Choir at Gettysburg College, though not being a believer.</span></p>
