Major Announcement!
Well today I figured I would finally announce what has been in the works for quite a while. I am finally going back to Italy to learn the Italian language. As some of my readers are aware that is what the whole purpose of this website was created for. Initially my intention was to spend a month in Venice, Italy. However, I feel like that I might get a better experience if I spend a month in rome instead. Rome being the capital city is one place where I know I can get connections and really immerse myself in the italian culture.
So I guess after some considerable time I finally did it! i of course will be chronicling my time in Rome on this website as well as my other Italian websites such as my Rome website, which just makes sense! This is the realization of a long term goal.
The school I am going to be attending is called Torre di Babele as I believe that this school offers the most value for the money spent. They have some really good Italian Language Courses and if you are ever considering learning Italian then I would give them a chance.
With a month in Rome i also plan on having enough material to really launch my travel writing career so in that effort I will be really working hard getting published in some of the major newspapers and online magazines. It will be tough I know but I believe that anything that is challenging is well worth the effort.
So you can follow my journey of spending a month in Rome on my main Rome website Vivarome.com as well as osme of my other Italian websites. It should be an interesting adventure.

Great post, Venice is just one of those cities you can’t help but feel the magic in, whether you’ve been there 100 times or never. I think you’re right to focus in Rome though. Best of luck!

Appreciate the time you’ve taken to share the “Venice” information.
Sister and her boyfriend live in Swtzerland…Zurich and Lucerne.
She has lived their for just about 20 years now.

Hello, I just stumbled upon your blog and I think it is great. I like your insight and observations on the city. There is a lot to be imersed in at Venice, especially the architecture. To me they have some of the most striking and beautiful buildings in the world, really love it. Make sure you take some time to go to the Museums there, such as the Museo Correr, and I am sure the Rialto bridge and Santa Maria della Salute will amaze you. Well have a wonderful time and remember to take plenty of pictures.

In Bocca al Lupo
…….as my grandfather would say instead of “good luck.”
It was his version of “knock on wood” instead of saying “good luck” which always brings bad luck.
Literally I suppose it means “Into the wolf’s mouth.”
Language. I love it.

The immersion route you’re going with seems like the best possible way to learn a language, hopefully someday I’ll have the luxury to polish up my spanish in the same way.

Hi, Thanks for that note. I too expect that it would be an interesting adventure indeed. Rome is a nice place to spend time and I am always open to learning new languages.
Thanks for the post.
