SOUTHERN ITALY


In June 2016, I flew to Italy for a three-week research trip. We started off in Rome, then went to the Amalfi Coast for five days. We also took side trips to Vatican City, Orvieto, Capri, Pompeii, and Naples before heading to Northern Italy. Here are some of my favorite photos from the first half of the trip.
