On the ride to the airport I began flipping through my phone and I found an old list in my notes. I smiled as I scanned through and realized it was my bucket list. It was with a sigh of relief that I finally checked off \u201cGo to Italy\u201d. As we said our good-byes to the beauty that is Italy, we also said good-bye to one of my friends traveling with us. She was going to make a pitstop before the semester began and was on her way to Germany! How awesome is that?! I was simply heading back to work, but I was heading back inspired and eager to cross more things off of my list. This holiday weekend I returned from Canada. As close as it is and maybe unexciting to some, it was one of the most fulfilling moments because it was at that moment I crossed off yet another thing off of my list. While in Canada, we walked through this big mall-like building with a foodcourt and casino and I couldn\u2019t believe my eyes. I was standing in front of Ponte Vecchio\u2026 again?! This Italian restaurant brought me so much joy as I reminisced about my recent journey. Italy has sparked a lost flame in me and will always remain with me. This world is a mighty big place, and I can\u2019t wait to travel and see it all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-138 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/italy-summer-2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2016\/09\/ponte-vecchio.png\" alt=\"ponte-vecchio\" width=\"1334\" height=\"635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/italy-summer-2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2016\/09\/ponte-vecchio.png 1334w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/italy-summer-2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2016\/09\/ponte-vecchio-300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/italy-summer-2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2016\/09\/ponte-vecchio-768x366.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/italy-summer-2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2016\/09\/ponte-vecchio-1024x487.png 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/italy-summer-2016\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/62\/2016\/09\/ponte-vecchio-500x238.png 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1334px) 100vw, 1334px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we packed our bags and prepared to return back to our normal lives,\u00a0my mind kept racing thinking of all of the other places I need to visit.
