Florence, Italy - Study Abroad Experience

I decided to go watch this opera because of a Cuban-American soprano, Lissette Oropresa, was going to perform and I love her voice so much. This was also my first time traveling by myself. I hopped on the train from Santa Maria Novella in Florence towards the Bologna train station. I didn't realize that when they say that there are fast trains, they were not kidding around! We were going 300 km/h which is about 200 mph! When I arrived at airport, I normally would go to check-in but I already had my boarding pass, so I just went inside the airport! After...
