A COUNTRY I WOULD LIKE TO VISIT


One country that I would like to visit is Italy. It is necessary explain why? In few words, I would like to go to Italy because it is one of the most important historical and artistic centers in Europe. Its attractions include the historic remains of some of the world's major civilizations, the art of the Roman Empire, the renaissance architectural and many many other things.

However, my knowledge of Italy is general, although a little more detailed than usual. Anyway, I know that Italy was the center of the great Roman Empire (between year 0 and V century AD), one of the most important regions of the medieval Europe (in the tenth and eleventh century), and the place of origin of the most important artists of the Renaissance (during the twelfth and fifteenth century). In the city of Rome is also the Vatican, a older independent state, the capital of the Catholic Church. Also, in Italy there are, besides Rome and the Vatican, other important historic cities with many cultural and tourist attractions: for example, Florencia, Milán, Napoles, etc.

In iItaly, I would like to visit as many archaeological sites, museums, art galleries and cities as posible, depending on the time and money available. Obviously, In Italy I would like also to eat the typical food of Italy, pizzas!, and go to some parties... ... to learn the italian language better.

In summary, I think I'd like to live some months in Italy, to understand their culture and study about their history. On the other hand, if I could some postgraduate study of European history in Italy would be great, amazing! However, during my stay in Italy I think get fat a little, for the pastas!

  1. Very interesting, Migiuel.

    Nonetheless, I can´t mark this post either, for the same reasons I mentiooned before. This task was due on Auguat 20th and your post says August 22nd. I wouldn`t be fair to your classmates if I did.

  2. Hi there,

    I told you I was going to accept 2 delayed posts and I did. I always try to honor my word.

    But this is the first and the last time I will do it. If you turn in any late assignments from now on... you´ll get no points. OK?

    Otherwise it wouldn´t be fair to your classmates.

    You get 2 points.

    Regards,

    Paula
