Ciao! My name is Lauren and I am currently studying abroad in Italy. In Italy I am studying Italian, art, and literature. In the United States, I study communication at Central Michigan University and when I go home from Europe I will be graduated! My passions in life are making new friends, leadership, communication, and traveling.

I am always seeking new ways to grow and discover new information. I love meeting new people and exploring new cultures, which is why I decided to come to Europe. In my travels I hope to meet people from all over the world, learn about history, learn about myself, and I hope to become a better person than when I first left home.

I look forward to talking with you!! Thanks for your time and consideration :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My friend and I drove a Vespa through the cliffs of Cinque Terre in Italy. It was terrifying and amazing all at the same time!

Teach, Learn, Share

My first language is English, and I can speak pretty well in Italian and some Spanish. I enjoy conversations about culture and cultural differences, swapping stories, and talking about history. I would love to share my life experiences with you in the hope that we can teach each other something new about the world!
