Be Italian For A Month

Be Italian For A Month: discover the Italian culture

You’d love to go to Italy, but can’t make it right now. You really need some time to relax, spending time in a piazza and enjoying some bella vita, but daily life claims your presence. You’d love to soak up into Italian culture.

Don’t worry, I have a plan for you.

Be Italian For A Month is your 30-day virtual journey to Italy. 

It is your way of visiting Italy without moving from home. Every day you get a taste of the Italian way of life and have fun living like an Italian for a month.

If you sign up, you’ll get a daily informal insight about Italy: habits, style, culture, sayings, strange or funny behaviors, our values, the little unknown things about il Bel Paese.

It will be your chance to travel without spending hundreds of bucks, your way of learning something new without doing research, your opportunity to incorporate something different into your daily life. You’ll also be able to speak a little Italian, cook a nice, real Italian meal, you’ll have a lot of anecdotes to share with your friends – exactly like when you come back from a trip abroad.

30 daily emails – one entire month of Italy: 39 USD

What it is

It’s your chance to visit Italy now. Right now. It will be a virtual trip, but it will feel exactly like sipping a nice aperitivo on an outdoor terrace in Rome.

What it isn’t

This is not a language course, not even a culture course: it’s like having a friend in Italy emailing you interesting news about his culture and way of life.

Do you want to read more about Be Italian For A Month? I wrote a couple of blog posts about it and you can find them here and here. 

 

Some people have been Italians For A Month! Here’s what they say.

The course was very comfortable and casual but still informative and interesting. I would especially suggest it for someone who was planning to see Italy for the first time but had no real background in Italian culture and customs.
Belinda – Carlisle, Ontario

It was so much fun to visit Italy for a little while each day! By the end of the 30 days, I felt like I knew Italy quite well! I can’t wait to visit in real life someday and put what I’ve learned to use. But for now, I feel like I’ve already been. Thank you!
Jillian – Des Moines, Iowa

I had no idea what to expect, but the course was something light and fun to read when I needed a break from work. I would say it is for anyone that has an affinity for Italy, planning to travel to Italy, or just generally interested in something new.
Jessica – Toronto, Ontario

The content was useful, fun, energetic, AND informative!I learned something each day (sometimes more than one thing!) but it wasn’t too strenuous. I would absolutely recommend this course to friends traveling to, or thinking of traveling to Italy.

I want to be Italian For A Month as well!

It is for you if

  • You live abroad but are in love with the Italian culture.
  • You want to know more about the Italian way of life, but you do not have an Italian friend to chat about it with.
  • You’d love to visit Italy one day.
  • You want to treat yourself to a nice, different and relaxing month and learn more about Italy, our culture and us crazy, lovely Italiani

It’s not for you if

  • You hate emails
  • You are too busy to read an email a day. If you like the program, but think that one email a day is too much, I recommend you check Be Italian For A Year – same concept, on a weekly basis

What you will learn

  • Quirky little things about Italy and its culture.
  • The meaning of “enjoy life the Italian way”.
  • Funny anecdotes to share with your friends over dinner.
  • The real Italy, no stereotypes.
  • Some useful Italian words.
  • Phrases or proverbs coming from our wise Italian grandmothers.

Everything will be simple, easy to read, relaxing, delivered directly to your inbox and ready to be enjoyed whenever you feel like it.

Why me?

Because I am Italian and I live in Italy! But also because I am qualified to teach languages, holding a B.A. in Languages, Tourism and Communication and a Master’s degree in Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language (you can read all about my education and work experience here). Most of all, because I love sharing with the world the amazing beauty of my country and our way of life.

Let’s recap

What you’ll get:

  • 30 daily emails about Italy and its culture
  • One entire month of Italy, one email a day
  • Cute, little lessons about Italian food, culture, language – a bit of Italy daily in your inbox

FAQ

1. When does it start?

Whenever you feel like it! Just sign in and you’ll start receiving emails the day after the enrollment. You will receive an email a day for thirty days. You can complete the journey at your own pace. The material will be yours forever.

2. Well, Italian culture is not completely unknown to me. Will the course tell me things I already know?

 Well, for example, you will learn that food is like a religion, here in Italy –  something I am sure you already know. But you will get much more in-depth information, like all the lessons we learn from our grandmothers or the importance of a proper celebration of Ferragosto or even how to prepare a perfect Italian merenda. I am sure it is something you do not hear that often outside of Italy. 

3. Can I get a few examples of the course topics in advance?

 To be honest, I have already disclosed a few topics in my previous answer and I don’t want to spill all my beans! I love surprises, don’t you? But if you want to get a better idea of the course, you can sign up to my newsletter and get Be Italian For A Weekend, a three-day email crash course about Italian culture, whose concept is quite similar to Be Italian For A Month. If you want to get it, sign up to my newsletter here.  

4. Will it be just another “cold” email course, where you only get emails in your inbox and that’s it?

 Of course not! We Italians love chatting and I’ll always be here to answer your questions and interact with you. I’ll soon open a group on Facebook for those who attended the e-course. Meanwhile you can like my Facebook page and follow me on Instagram or Pinterest for some more Italian fun. 

5. I have taken Be Italian For A Month and now I want to take Be Italian For A Year. How can I keep on being Italian for a while more?

 I love that you want to know more about Italian culture and lifestyle! I created an Alumni Only version of Be Italian For A Year. Here you’ll find all the details about the exclusive offer for you.  

Please note: your purchase is non-refundable. Please shop mindfully.

If you are not sure if you’ll like the course or not or are worried you’ll regret making your purchase, please check my blog, my newsletter and my about page, which are a great way to get to know me and my products better.
