italy italian life living tuscany toscanaI decided not to leave Anne-Marie out of the mix so I asked her the same five questions about our family adventure living in Italy and here are her responses:
  • Q: What is your favorite thing about living in Italy?
  • A: Getting to know the Italian people and the beauty of the Italian countryside.
  • Q: What is your least-favorite thing?
  • A: How complicated it sometimes is to do simple things.
  • Q: Would you do it again?
  • A: Yes!... tomorrow.
  • Q: What is your favorite Italian food?
  • A: It's not possible to say one... there are so many things that I like... strangozzi con fave e pancetta, bruschetta, pecorino cheese (from Piensa), bread, olive oil, lentils... basically (other than pizza), everything we ate at Osterìa del Trivio in Spoleto.
  • Q: What is your favorite memory of Italy?
  • A: Walking the little girls to and from school and saying "Ciao!" to our friends in the shops.
Anne-Marie's Italian language skills blossomed when we moved to Spoleto (since there were many more opportunities for her to speak with Italian natives). The Italians just loved her. And, according to my ever-so-true "trickle down love" theory, on many occasions I was the beneficiary of that love because I was nearby.
