The main languages spoken are Italian and English. Italian is the native and national language. English is taught in all schools!
In Rome and the rest of Italy, people use euros, which is the denomination used in all countries in the European Union.
A bottle of water costs around .61€, the equivalent of 75 cents. How does this compare to a bottle of water in the United States?
My favorite meal was carbonara pasta. This dish is made with only a few ingredients, including pecorino cheese, egg yolks, pancetta (which is similar to bacon) and pasta. It is a traditional Roman specialty and only takes a few minutes to make!
To get in the Italian mood, I listened to a couple of my favorite Italian singers on repeat: Raffaella Cara and Mina. They have really funny old music videos with some dances that my friends and I tried to learn.
