The main language spoken here is Italian. Some people know a little bit of English, but a vast majority speak only Italian.
The money currency here is the European euro.
Most bottles of water cost about 1 euro, which is equivalent to about $0.85 in United States dollars.
This week, I went to the Mercate Centrale Firenze where I had the best pizza! It was a simple margarita pizza, however, the dough was airy and light, the tomatoes and basil tasted fresh, and the mozarella cheese was delicious. I would go there every day if I could, just to eat the pizza!
Surprisingly, a lot of people here listen to American music! On the radio or in stores, I would hear the same songs that I would hear in United States.
This week, I was able to explore neighboring cities like Siena and San Gimignano. Learning about the rich history and looking at all of the different architects of each building, was definitely really fun and memorable.
