Introduction

My name is Christina Rutherford and I studied abroad in Perugia, Italy last spring semester (January - April 2024). I took part in the Multicultural Psychology program at the Umbra Institute. We had three-day weekends as there were no classes on Fridays, and I spent that time traveling anywhere I could. I visited a few places in Italy and many other countries as well. This site is a compilation of my experiences abroad, coursework from my classes at Umbra, and reflections completed in this workshop.
