Day 11: Assisi

"Full On" is always a highlight of People to People trips, and this year's Full On experience in Assisi was no different! Full On teaches students to achieve results in life by focusing on what they want and by stepping outside their comfort zones. After a brief morning icebreaker with another delegation from New York, we all had the chance to rappel down a 90 foot tower that is over 800 years old!








The group was then in for another surprise challenge. Everyone was taught to chop through a block of wood with their hands.
After the Full On day, everyone had some free time to explore the beautiful hilltop town of Assisi. I used my free time to check out the 13th century Basilica of Saint Francis.

Tomorrow we head off to Florence and Pisa. Of course, everyone is very excited!
