To all my dear friends I met in Sicily

Today is exactly one year, when I came to Sicily to study Italian. It was one of my best experiences I have ever had! Here is the list why:

5.) BEST SCHOOL

The reason why I came to Sicily was to improve my level of Italian. I am student of Intituto Italiano di Cultura di Bratislava, and I received the scholarship in Federico II Scuola di lingua e cultura italiana in Catania.

The teachers in open atmosphere are incredibly friendly. The school offers many cultural activities where you learn about Sicilian culture and history. And the cooking lessons are the best!

Every week their students try new recipes from Sicily and preparation of yummy dinner with all that people is fun. Do not miss this chance to pick up some Italian words by taking a course!

4.) BEST TRIPS

Sicily is one of the most beautiful places with various opportunities to do or to see.

You can hike on Etna, the highest volcano in Europe, lying on the beach, exploring the history with mix of cultures, get out of civilization in the middle of island.

There are unlimited options to discover the island. Sicily isn’t one the most crowded islands, take advantage of that, and book your flight ticket as soon as possible!

3.) BEST PARTIES

There are many options where to have fun in Sicily. Locals love to hang out with their friends, they sit outside with drinks, and they go to restaurants, bars or clubs.

In Catania, the second biggest city in Sicily, the main clubs and bars are located near besides Teatro Massimo Bellini.

During summer parties are also on the beaches. You will not get bored for sure; you will always meet someone new!

2.) BEST FOOD

Could I show you better argument about delicious food in Sicily than I put on weight 5 kilograms during a few weeks in Sicily only?

I came there with a good shape as I was running almost every day, but I could not say NO to all that fresh food from markets, to pizza after 1 AM or to Italian ice cream, to pasta, to all kind of cakes or to cappuccino.

I took hundreds of photos about Sicilian food, and I personally think that their cuisine is one of the best in the world! Get ready for it!

 1.) BEST PEOPLE

Oh, this is the best part! I can not express myself, how many wonderful people I met there! Sicilians are really open, friendly and welcoming, and you easily make new friends.

In addition, you can meet many other nationalities from all around the world. I guarantee that you will never be alone!

Lots of love, hugs and kisses to all my friends I met during Sicily: “Guys, I miss you so much!” :*
