The main language spoken here is Italian, however a lot of people speak English too. English is used as a bridge language. If two people don’t speak each other’s native language, they will usually communicate in English instead.
Italy and many other European countries use the euro (€) as their currency.
A bottle of water costs $0.25 cents.
Soup! I had a vegetable and bean soup that tasted just like chili but better.
I listened to two men playing live music in the town square. One man was playing the horn and the other the accordion.
I went on a trip to Siena, Italy. It is a very old town about 90 miles away from where I live. The streets are tiny, windy and hilly. It was filled with little cafes and many gift shops. I also toured a beautiful church that is entirely made of stone, including colored marble.
