Entry 1:
Today I was asked to submit an entry on my favorite experience so far on this trip. Honestly, I cannot just give one. This whole trip has been amazing so far. The cities we have visited are not only full of history but are also very beautiful. One of my favorite things to do is sit on a bench near my apartment in Paris and just watch the people, admire the architecture, and just take everything in. I am so fortunate to be here! We have also had some amazing opportunities. In Rome we visited the Fendi factory. We were given the history of the brand and a tour of the store, including the secret dressing room for celebs! We also were given a tour of the workroom where the furs are made. It was incredibly exciting. Just when you think things could not get any better, we visited the vaults of Yves St. Laurent, the late designer. There are so many amazing pieces catalogued in that vault! I have had all these wonderful experiences and there are still so many more to come.
