Jaycee Grider: My arrival to Viterbo was, to simply put it, exhilarating

Il nostro benvenuto a Jaycee Grider, studentessa americana di Usac, arrivata da inizio settembre a Viterbo. Ogni martedì curerà un articolo in cui descriverà le sue impressioni in questo soggiorno italiano, nella nostra Viterbo.
Ecco il primo reportage giornalistico con gli scatti più belli…

My arrival to Viterbo was, to simply put it, exhilarating. From the day I got here to almost a month later, I have been busy. Busy in the best way such as making friends, taking hikes, getting used to my new classes here and learning the ins and outs of this wonderful city. It has been a privilege to make a few local friends, who have showed us around. Experiencing Viterbo’s spunky little bar scenes, soaking in some relaxing hot springs, and hiking up a hillside to lookout over the city has been nothing short of special. Knowing I get to meet more locals and learn about the history of Viterbo is beyond exciting. I am lucky to call this city home for the following months, thank you for the warm welcome!
