Ho imparato molto

 My time at Il Sasso comes to a close this week.  I have learned so much and gained confidence that surprises me.  My ability with the language has soared this time and I find myself able to say things without thinking them through first.  It's glorious.

And I have worked with a wonderful teacher, Teresa.  A retired language teacher who taught Italian at universities in France for a good part of her career.  But she is a Montepulciano native and thus has made her way back to her hometown.  What have I learned from her?:

  • Confidence
  • Humor
  • Congiuntivo trapassato and other nightmarish verb tenses
  • Lovely idiosyncrasies of Italian culture
  • Book recommendations
But by far the most important thing..... that wearing a black bra under a white shirt is BACK, BITCHES!!!

YES!!!
