    My study abroad experience would not have been as amazing as it was without CIS Abroad. I stayed with a host family and it was life-changing. You can't live like an Italian unless you live with an Italian family!

    Being in Sorrento was like living in my personal fairy tale. I met the most wonderful people, and we laughed, learned, and grew together. I've never felt more at home than I did living in Sorrento.

    I took a Marine Biology class and I genuinely feel that is where some of my most memorable moments come from, snorkeling in clear blue water and studying different species in the water is not an experience I get to have here in New York City.
