I'm studying abroad in Wiener Neustadt, Austria about 30 minutes from Vienna from February until March. School is rough, but when I can I try to get out to experience as much of Europe as possible. Posting pictures is easier than writing a whole lot, but I'll try to do a little of both... full info
Colosseum1The Colosseum was amazing. To think about how they could build something so big so long ago with the primitive tools the Romans had to work with boggles the mind. Plus, my student ID somehow got me in for free and Gladiator is one of my favorite movies ever
Colosseum2Some random newlyweds wandering through the gardens around the Colosseum
Creation of Man - Sistine ChapelRegardless of whether or not you are Catholic (I'm not) the Sistine Chapel shouldn't be missed. Every inch of the walls and ceiling is covered with some sort of mural and everyone has its own story. Plus, the painted on curtains and moldings look pretty three-dimensional.
Trevi FountainCoolest place to sit and enjoy a drink with friends in Rome at night ... tough to get a good picture of it... I'll be putting a few together when I get back to make a good one
