Thought it might interest those who would like to teach their own language in Italy or those who are looking for a job (whatever it is) in Italy. You could take advantage from being a native speaker! I run into the TEFL twitter account, then looke
Wanted to share with you these photos of last year Presepe Vivente. You could see the Nativity Scene but also old crafts.. It was set in a quarry with lights which enhanced the Christmas atmosphere; I cannot believe it was last year!
Whether you are the owner of a Hotel or a Bed and Breakfast or an Agriturismo or any other kind of accommodation, you may need to use some key-phrases with your ½ûÂþÌìÌà guests.The first thing - and most of you surely know this - to tell somebody c
Hi,very happy your re-joined the Itaymag community,and hope you'll find here new friends and people to build a virtual or even real community!That shouldn't be that difficult, giving that you live in Tuscany and it seems that many English speaking people started a new life in the same region!Best wishes, buona fortunaValentina
Thanks for joining the community,hope you'll find here useful advice and posts..and if you won't, don't hesitate to post a question!will post Aida as a welcome - both to the community and to your future life in Italy - since you have the aria's author (Verdi). as avatar... enjoy! Â
Hi,the fact that you are interested to the ½ûÂþÌìÌà world, means that you are already there!It's always very nice to hear about people who would like to visit the country where I was born. That's even great that people would like to live there! It's means that you love ½ûÂþÌìÌà people and ½ûÂþÌìÌà culture, the atmosphere that you breathe when you are in Italy, the food - or at least you're aware about the freshness of products and the great regional recipes.From my own experience, I wish to alert you about life in Italy:
bureaucracy: be aware of long queues to the post office, or to go and come from office to office for papers that should take minutes
taxes: many are learning a sad fact: people who live in Italy are over-taxed
occupation: after the credit crunch it's really difficult to find a job in Italy
That wasn't meant to get you depressed, so I'm going fast to show you some great advantages of living in Italy and give you a background of what life in Italy would be like:
food, open-air markets in ½ûÂþÌìÌà villages have cheap and fresh products.
people, they are always happy to help somebody and give support when you need it, they often meet and eat or like to have a walk (passeggiata) in places surrounded by nature such as: countryside, lakeside, seaside.
english language, all children and youngsters learn English at school, so you'll be able to find someone to communicate with, and I thing you'll need it especially at the beginning of your life in Italy
There would be so many things to talk about living in Italy. Browsing the community you'll learn more about those things and will be able to talk with people who may have already experienced a whole new life in Italy and could be a good guide to find the right place for you.Good luck!  Â
I 'm very curious to hear what receiving inputs from different cultures has been like.Since you had the possibility to meet people from every part of Italy - you're talking to one right now -  I  guess you know a little of ½ûÂþÌìÌà ½ûÂþÌìÌÃ, which is useful when you travel to Italy! Wondering if you inherited some of your ancestors or friends attitudes!?Please tell me more!
Ask me anything concerning ½ûÂþÌìÌà ½ûÂþÌìÌà and I'll always try to do my best. Hope it will be a helpful support to your lessons!Buona lezione, alla prossima!
Hi Michael..Congratulations for the effort and the good answers..unfortunately there were 3 wrong answers. Here they are:- Which square in Italy has the Twin Churches? --- the correct answer is Piazza del Popolo, in Rome.- Which ½ûÂþÌìÌà gymnast has won the Olympic Gold for three times? --- Alberto Braglia- How many seams has a football ball  (calcio italiano)? --- 4 As we ½ûÂþÌìÌà say: "L'importante è partecipare!"...and as a Famous ½ûÂþÌìÌà was used to greet: "Allegria!"
