Italian language, culture and travel tips
Being able to finally practice the language you have studied so hard in the country where it is spoken is undoubtedly rewarding but it can be quite challenging as well.
You can be a very fluent speaker but if in the middle of a conversation someone tells you sei lungo come la Quaresima (you are long as Lent) or that it is time to tagliare la testa al toro (to cut the bull’s head), you may end up with a puzzled look on your face.
YouTube is one of the most important sources of video entertainment in my daily life and it is a wonderful opportunity for practicing my English comprehension skills. I watch a lot of videos on a daily basis – all of them in English – and I feel that this is highly beneficial for my English fluency.
As a matter of fact, Rimini is one of the most popular Italian beach destinations, for families in particular. The city is on the Adriatic coast and, since the sea is not exactly nice there, it offers all kinds of services to compensate such a flaw.
My dear Expats in Italy section is back and I couldn’t be happier because I really love this kind of posts. If you have been following me for a while, you know that I chat with expats living in Italy every now and then because I really want to know their opinion about life in Italy and Italian culture in general. For me, as a native, it is a great opportunity to look at Italy with different eyes and I hope that for you guys is a way to read about the opinions of people who live here without being Italians – and manage to survive!
