Europe :)

Sorry this has taken so long to update but the internet is very spotty and I don't have access to it much!! Plus, I had finals last week in Roma, which took up quite a bit of my time, but now I am done with the tough finals!!

The picture above is my friend Ron and I at the European Constitutional Court. We got to go on the terrace and had a speaker. Basically the equivalent of the Supreme Court! Very cool!!

We got to Strasbourg on Monday for the focus on gender in the law and international human rights and the institutional field study. It is extremely interesting and we spend our class periods talking about international human rights topics. We took a bus to Luxembourg today (GORGEOUS CITY) and we get to visit the European Union's International Court of Human Rights tomorrow which should be very interesting :)

Last week was basically spent on finals, and the week went by extremely fast!! It was kind of sad to say goodbye to some of these people I have spent the last month with. You become extremely close because you spend every waking moment with these people!

We had a final banquet at a restaurant called the View in which Justice and Professor Ginsburgs attended. The view from the restaurant was amazing and we had a great time!

This past weekend I went to Amsterdam which is another gorgeous city. I cannot wait to go back some day!! The weather was more my style--around 65-70 degrees which was a welcome change from the 100 degree weather of Roma!!

I will be in Strasbourg until next Friday and then I am going to Paris with some friends and meeting up with Heather and Whitney!! YAYYYYY!!!!! This weekend I am not going anywhere as I am running low on funds (hint hint mom and dad). The rest of the group is going to Paris o see the end of the Tour de France!! That would be sooo amazing!!

Well better jet--I am extremely tired!!
