FINAL SUMMER ISSUE
Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall By Blending Staff Our final summer issue coincides with the month of August, a period of important transition, preparation, and departures. For this issue, we’ve decided to share some unique reflections from students and their experiences here in Florence – those who have found themselves whisked into the contemporary art scene, an intern at Florence’s most famous enoteca, those who have found a special community in Florence. The end of summer in Italy is a poignant time of the year for greetings and goodbyes whether for vacations ending or new seasons beginning. The following stories are less “news” and more “summertime reflections” at the closing of the FUA 2011-2012 academic year, and we strongly hope that the incoming students of the 2012-2013 season gain inspiration and insight to their just-starting Florentine journey.
