“Girls, come downstairs! It’s time for dinner!” Most evenings my mom calls my sisters and me down to the kitchen for dinner. These dinners are very typical and not out of the ordinary for our family. Most nights my mom, dad, sister Emily, and sister Annie are all present at this casual family dinner.

Much like all my other trips, I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I go into the train from Rome Termini, to head South to Sorrento. Of all the things I could’ve imagined, the last thing I would’ve told you was that I would be studying Italian alongside brilliant people over the age of 50. Why was it so unexpected?
