Latest Dispatches from our Florence Bloggers
I can't imagine what Florence would have been like without CEA CAPA. The staff was amazing when it came to any type of issue. Whether it had to do with housing, school, where to eat, or how things work in Italy, the people at CEA CAPA were more than willing to help.
