My adventures in Rome. August 2006 sees me travelling in Europe for the first time. My desire to speak Italian (which will help my upcoming opera career) is taking me across the sea to learn from the natives. Follow me as I travel and wish me luck, or buona fortuna!

Blogger è in italiano!

Today I'm trying something new. I'm typing my blog using the Italian interface. Scrivi, crea, modifica post... It's all pretty similar and easy to understand, but it's also nice to know that I know what it means :)

Yesterday was very relaxed. I had my first private lesson with my teacher and already my spoken Italian is greatly improved. I went back to my apartment after class and did some laundry and practiced. Just like last Friday, I realized that the study I've done so far has already vastly improved my comprehension and pronunciation! It's very exciting to finally have a grip on the language that was such a mystery to me for so long! Italian is supposed to be the easiest language in which to sing, but for some reason it wasn't for me. Those days are over!

Ok. No pictures to share today. Tomorrow I'll post a few snapshots of my class and some of the sights in Roma. I'm off to see some churches today!
