I went to my work and was greeted by people happy to see me. This made me feel a little better. I signed a contract that says, yes, I do work in Pisa, and went on my merry way. In efforts to be a better expat, I've decided to learn the local language/most beautiful language in the world...Italian. I went to the local university to find students to work language with in tandum. This means, I will teach English, they will teach Italian. This will of course, be free. That's my price range.
I was invited into come into two English classrooms and let students ask me questions in English. This happened of course, not before I was hit by a pigeon in the piazza. Yep, a bird flew into me as I ate gelato for the, to many-th time.
After going out with coworkers and students, it is decided, this year will be wonderful. I am thrilled to learn Italian, joyful over the fact I will work with such great English speakers, and pumped to hear every students iconic story.
Some Italian students
Looking forward to hearing the story of every student. Cannot wait to understand their language. Pumped to have great friends in a spectacular country. Hoping to gain more expat experience. And as the Italians would say:
Saluti
