Italia – what else can we say? Visit world-famous art galleries, film studios, and museums; walk through ancient piazzas and cultural landmarks; explore breathtaking scenery across Italy from Turin to Rome; taste the best pizza, pasta & gelato (should have led with that); visit with local artisans, artists, and filmmakers. Not bad for homework! And yes, there is a final exam.
