Emily: I’m from Vancouver, Canada, and I’m a university student there. But at the moment I’m in
Italy. I’m taking summer classes at a university in Rome. I love being here!
I think Rome is the most beautiful city in the world, with the greatest art and museums. It’s bigger
than Vancouver. It’s more expensive, and the traffic is worse. But I think it’s more interesting. The
weather is much nicer here, too. It’s warmer and sunnier than Vancouver, where it rains a lot. Public
transport is easier to use in Vancouver, but Rome has more delicious food and better shopping. I love
the Italian language, but I think it’s harder than English. People talk faster here!
I’m studying hard. If I learn to speak Italian well, I’ll move here someday.
