My camera lens has been focused on the landscape and vegetation of Sicily over the past week. Though I expected the island to be beautiful, I am still surprised every time I look out the hotel window or go on an excursion with the group. As my family and I rarely venture out of New England, it's been an incredible experience to live in such a different environment, even for a short period of time. My complete awe at Sicily's landscape and vegetation has been documented in the many photos I've taken.
I never thought I would see a real lemon tree, climb an active volcano, or window-shop in a small Italian town such as Taormina, and doing so has given me a greater understanding of some of the elements of Italian culture I've studied in the many Italian courses I've taken at Mount Holyoke.
