Let's start exploring
Authored By:
July 12, in the morning the students enjoyed typical Italian sweets during breakfast, afterwards they participated in an Orientation to meet their Language Leaders and Program Leaders. The students were very interested and curious about what awaits them in the future, through several icebreakers we saw how several words are already present in the students' vocabulary: "ciao", "arrivederci", "Mi chiamo...", all with perfect pronunciation.
In the afternoon a special visit: the Janiculum fountain.
The Janiculum is an obligatory stop in Rome, it is a hill that is 15 minutes walking from the ACU. The fountain is a historical element of Rome and the students took the opportunity to take several photos and enjoy the view of the terrace of the Janiculum.
In the evening we will start with the "tasting": a real Italian pizza at the most famous restaurant in Trastevere, we are sure they will savor every bite!
