I hiked mountains, cooked with chefs, ate raw fish, lived as a member of a big Italian family, and become lifelong friends with 10 strangers in my group. Since this experience, I haven’t been afraid to speak up and confidently be myself. I hope many other students like me get to be part of SDC.” -Rayanna Tucker, Kansas City, 2018 Italy: Slow Food, Rich Culture
