I loved Italy so much. I wonder if I were Italian in my previous life! Been doing Dulingo and trying to up my game! Goal - Whole summer in Italy in a tiny sea side town and writing and going to the beach!

That is my dream as well. Fresh fish and fruit every day, the sound of the ocean, and words!

Such a treat to find you! Referred by Heidi Chapson! I met her in elementary school. We go way back!

Yes, yes, yes! Or, sì, sì, sì!! I am Hungarian, not Italian, but agree with everything in this short and lovely essay that is not only about Italy, but about slowing down and actually living (experiencing!) life. The Italian language is my "pillola della felicità" (happiness pill). In other words, my natural anti-depressant :) Grazie per questo saggio che afferma la vita!
