They were amazing at helping me
by: MichaelProgram: IFA Gap Year in Italy: Italian Language & Cultural ImmersionIt has been my dream to return to Italy and to reconnect with my culture after being away for 20 years and Italian for a While made it possible. They were amazing at helping me with the entire process from applying for visa to fitting into the Italian culture, I always felt welcomed and supported, especially if I was finding it difficult to integrate into the culture. All in all, I definitely felt Italian for a while.
