School Days

Today Boomer had the opportunity to visit the Aliotti private school of Arezzo. He was so excited to see how the Italian school system and the American school system were similar and how they were different. Check out this link to see what the school has to offer and their mission.



Boomer was so blown away by how well the kids spoke English that he had to lay down and take a nap. As he was napping, he dreamed about being a teacher. He thought about the importance of instilling in his children a desire to learn another language. The first way of teaching that came to his mind was through the use of song and dance. He was so inspired by the children's songs today that he found one of his own on YouTube. Maybe you can learn the song too!! 


Here is Boomer dreaming of American kids speaking perfect Italian! 

Once Boomer left the school feeling very inspired, he saw a vespa sitting by itself just asking for him to ride it. He has noticed that the main mode of transportation is by Vespa and has been dying to ride on one. By walking everywhere, Boomer hasn't had to worry about all those carbs from the pasta and calories from gelato going to his hips. He decided to embrace his inner Lizzie McGuire and hop on! Luckily I didn't catch him because he did not have a helmet on! 

Here is a map of Arezzo just in case you decide to explore the city on a Vespa one day, too! 


Thanks for spending the day with us!!! Ciao!!
