Orvieto. Italy.

During my experience learning Italian in Rome, the Scuola Leonardo used to organize day trips not only in the city but also a bit further away and today I am going to tell you about the time we went to the beautiful Orvieto. The group of students and the beautiful Marta met at Termini to […]
My Roman strolls.

I’ve changed my Italian class schedule and my mode of transportation. I’ve got a little tired of that crowded bus that dropped me off behind my apartment. Now I take the metro to Ottaviano and walk toward the back of Castel Sant’Angelo. Next to it, on the banks of the Tiber, is Biblio Bar, a […]
Roman autumn.

I’m still in Rome learning Italian and enjoying every moment. The first two weeks are very intense. The wonderful group we’ve formed won’t last forever; everyone returns to their own lives at different times, so I think I speak for everyone when I say we’re going to make every minute count. In addition to the […]
Learning italian in Rome.

February 2024, I have put a plan in motion, in September I am going to Rome for three months to learn as much Italian as I can. I book the apartment, that I already know, in Baldo degli Ubaldi, and now I just have to start preparing for the arrival of a new language in […]
The grand little Singapore.

How little I have written about this small place that has welcomed me on so many occasions. It’s time to discover some more of its corners in your company. I meet Ian at the bus stop on Orchard Street. We’re going on an excursion to the TreeTop Walk, yes, in this heat, it will be […]

If you’ve been reading my blog for a long time you’ll know that I’m in love with Australia and Sydney is one of my places in the world that I used to visit in summer. This time I’ll take you for a walk through a more wintry Sydney, do you think? I’ll start with one […]
St. Albans. England.

The sun came out and Alfredo, my Argentinian friend, and I are going to see a little town that we know nothing about and it’s going to give us a very satisfactory surprise. Saint Alban was the first English saint, and this small town that bears his name is north of London. We arrive by […]
Viña del Mar. Chile.

It’s winter in Santiago de Chile, I’m going for a walk to clear my head from the flight. I head to the river and walk through the beautiful neighbourhood that takes me to the Cerro de San Cristóbal cable car and I decide to take it to Cumbre. I am still impressed by the setting […]
Kensington, Notting Hill, London.

South Kensington is a rather exclusive neighborhood of London, I’m not going to talk to you about any mansions, but the thinnest house in the city, they call it Thin House. Next to the Kesington tube station there are several cute places to have tea such as Molly Rose Bakery, the Hummingbird pastry shop, or […]
