Italy
Hello!
This time I want to write about well-known country rich in history and it boasts with its beauty.
I really love Italy and I also want to learn Italian, it`s such an wonderful language! Actually, I can`t decide between Italian and Spanish language. Personally, Italian is more attractive for me.
I`m glad I have the opportunity to visit Italy almost every year. My uncle married an Italian woman-Carla-my aunt and they have 2 children, Anna and Paolo, my cousins. And that is often the reason why we go to Italy. They live in Bologna, an old city that`s famous for their university- oldest one in the world. Bologna is an amzing city that is a mix of history and up-to-date things, for example in century old buildings there are luxury shops like Versace, Gucci, Vero Moda, Armany etc. The people in Italy also care a lot about their appearence. Women (mostly from cities) never go outside without make-up and nice clothes even when they go to pick up a packet from the post office.
Some years ago when I was in Italy I was very surprised by behaving of Italian people. Firstly, they have almost never stress, they rather miss the train as if they would hurry a bit. They also rather stay at work 2 hours later but in the morning the get up at 8 and go to a caffee for a delicious cappuccino and a cake.
Italians are night people. The streets in the evenings and night are full of people. They have fun, they celebrate (that it isn`t so hot as during the day :D ) and they EAT. My funny experience happened 2 years ago. It was after half past 12 in the night and I had already washed my teeth and I had my pyjamas on when my uncle said: “Everybody in the car!” I was confused, “why in the car? I`m going to sleep!” They looked at me as if I was mad but I put on my clothes and went with them anyway. We drived to overcrowded streets where everybody was holding a huge ice-cream. My uncle quickly asked which kind of ice-cream do I want and in a minute he was back with an enormous one (in Slovakia like 7 scoops) and he said:” That was the smallest one I could get.”
