abroad

I’ve become interested into traveling in Italy, Rome in particular, and I’ll be taking a trip in summer of 2010, to France for family, then a quick train ride to England. I’m hoping to be able to make time, space, and have the means to travel to Italy, one part of Europe I’m more than fascinated with. The following year I’ll like to take a short residency and a job for the summer in Rome, Milan, Florence, or Venice, but would it be difficult being an African- American woman to find such? This is more of pre-planning and curiosity then actual set plans of traveling soon.

I’m trying to decide between Paris and Bordeaux to study abroad

I’ll be there for six weeks in the summer from May to June.

Anyone have any suggestions or opinions?

Thanks!

I am interested in doing a backpacking trip through Europe. I think it would add to the experience and make the trip more financially feasible if I find little jobs along the way to help pay my way. I’m unsure if A) if I need a permit to do this and b) if anyone has any experience doing this. I have a great deal of questions on this topic and would love any help I can get.

Thanks

Steph
