Italian speaking practice and grammar tutoring
Every time, it is an opportunity for me to learn more and to see life in Italy through different eyes. When I began interviewing expats, it was because I didn’t want this blog to be too focused on my personal Italian-native experience and I wanted to offer a more accurate view of Italian life.
Today I am chatting again with someone who has decided to make Italy her home and this makes me really happy. I have had this section on my blog for years now and I still am super excited when I have the chance of chatting with an expat. It’s always a real pleasure for me!
Today I have the pleasure of interviewing one of my students, a lovely lady called Susan Dufresne. Susan lives in a place I had never heard of, a small town in Campania called Guardia Sanframondi, and the tales of her life there are so interesting that I asked her to share her experience.
Today, I have the great pleasure of chatting with lovely Giovanna, a lady from New York who now lives on the beautiful island of Ischia, off the coast of Naples. I have virtually met Giovanna on Instagram and I have to admit that the fact that she lives in Ischia immediately caught my attention.
I have been doing these kinds of interviews for a few years now and I have spoken with a good number of people but it is always really interesting to read what people have to say about their life in Italy and their experience here.
Today I have the pleasure of interviewing Bethany, a lovely lady from Mississippi who has fallen in love with a guy from Naples and left everything behind to live with him in Italy.
I have been chatting with foreigners who moved to Italy for a long time now but there’s always something new to learn from them, a different point of view, a peculiar experience with Italian life. This is why I feel really honored to be given the chance to speak, even if virtually, with so many different people.
Today I have the pleasure of chatting with Sonia Piacente, who very kindly shares with us her experience of moving to Italy and growing a family here and also tells us a bit about life in Turin as an expat.
When I think about autumn, there are some images that always come to my mind: the fire burning for the first time in the season, walking on a carpet of crunchy leaves, going into the woods to hunt for some mushrooms, and eating the first roasted chestnuts.
Jokes aside, when I met Isabella – the expat I am interviewing today – on Instagram, I found the fact that she had a YouTube channel very interesting because I believe that making videos is a great way to tell about life in a certain country. Needless to say, I have immediately asked her if she was interested in being interviewed and I am super happy she said yes!
