Spoleto, a timeless treasure in the heart of Italy.

I wake up to another Saturday morning in Rome with a new plan—today we’re going on an excursion with la scuola. We head back to Termini train station, and after an hour and a half by train, we arrive in Spoleto. Spoleto is a small town in the province of Perugia (in the region of […]
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.

Winter Sydney.

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 […]
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 […]
