    ITALIAN LANGUAGE

    Hello all, remember that time I said I was going to help you expand your knowledge of Italy, country, history and the language? I know it was nearly 2 years ago but guess what? It’s baaaack!!

    I have been learning Italian for over two years, then quit classes to learn online with apps and reference books while still enjoying it.

    In this post, I am going to introduce you to some of my favourite sites that help you with learning Italian. whether it be an application on your mobile phone or a website, they have all come in handy over the last few years

    APP/SITES FOR YOUR PHONE

     These are all the applications (app) that I used over the last year. My personal favourite is Busuu and Google Translate. As they all have very good software , I recommend you try them all first before you choose your own favourite.

    Please Note: Obviously there are many more apps on IOS and Android Store but I recommend these apps myself from first hand experience using them. Also this post is 100% NOT sponsored or paid for.

    This is a post dedicated to my favourite haunts on the internet that I view regularly.

    I will give you an idea of their content, where to find them and social media links. Some of these are quite new to the bookish community (like I am) but some have been around for years!

    So in no order (as they are all fab bloggers!) …here they are:

    Sarah in wonderland

    • Name: Sarah
    • Blog: www.sarahinwonderland.co.uk / www.fromsarahlex.co.uk
    • Twitter: @Wonderlandblogs / @fromsarahlex
    • Content: Disability, beauty, lifestyle.
    • Note: She has since rebranded to “From Sarah Lex”.

    So this concludes my list of bloggers I admire & been viewing their sites often.

    Is there any bloggers that I missed that I could add to my annual list in 2019? Am I on yours? Do you frequently view these blogs?

    Let me know in the comments!

    Introduction to ITALIAN FRIDAYS

    September 1, 2017

    Hello All,

    This is the first post to do with Italy.

    I first encountered the country Italy while researching about the Roman Era as a child. As I was watching a few documentaries based on the Roman era and glancing through books created by Mary Beard when I saw a program about Italian food and culture called “Italy Unpacked”. I was mesmerised by the content but unhappy I did not know more about the country and language, to understand it more.

    So this idea came about months after I finished watching the TV series.

    I am going to do a series of posts for everyone. I want to take both you, as a reader, and me, as a writer, on a journey through various different things to do with Italy – both it’s history and culture. These posts will be dedicated to various topics.

    The main topics I want to include in my project are:

    CULTURE // FAMOUS CITIES // FOOD & DRINK // HISTORY // LANGUAGE // ROMANS

    I will always add any relevant links below (for more information):
