Highlights:
Hobbies and Interests:
Teaching Italian cooking. I am a friendly and a hearty person, I like to see friends and I have many interests: going to the cinema, watching films at home, reading, going out with friends in haunts and restaurants of the city and of the surroundings, walking in the park and short trips during the weekend. Excursions and Local Attractions:
Of particular natural and historical interest is the Mathildic road, that takes its name from Mathilda Duchess of Canossa: medieval castles, fortresses and towers on top of hills that dominate gentle valleys. The most famous one is the Castle of Canossa (X century), the Castle of Carpineti, of Garzano of Rossena, of Bianello. Every year from May to September there are historical parades in medieval costume. The River Po, the main Italian river, flows for 20 kilometers through Reggio Emilia territory, offering beautiful landscapes and pictureque boat tours. In the city of Reggio Emilia, there are very important and beautiful theatres, many art galleries, exhibitions, museums, old churches and monuments. Many shops of fashion and antiques, pubs and good restaurants. Lovers of agro-industrial culture may visit the Parmigiano Reggiano cheese factory, Lambrusco wineries and Balsamico vinegar factories. A study holiday in Reggio Emilia allows you not only to make local trips in the city and its surroundings but also day trips to other beautiful and famous Italian cities, rich in charme, art and history, such as Bologna, Parma, Ravenna, Verona and many others. Accommodation, Facilities and Local Area:
An elegant apartment in a quiet area well served by public transport, only a pleasant 10 minutes walk to the town centre where you can do some shopping or visit museum and exhibitions. Accommodation consists of a bedroom with adjacent wardrobe and private bathroom with shower. The bedroom is furnished with a comfortable double sofa bed, a comfortable desk, a bookshelf, a television and a stereo. If you have a laptop you can connect to internet whenever you want. In the common living room, there is a comfortable lounge area and a dining area, a television, a stereo, a DVD player and a video recorder all of these also useful for the study activities. The kitchen is modern and well equipped. In spring and summer it is pleasant to eat outside on the balcony. The house is well heated and air conditioned in summer. Nearby there is a beautiful park, very popular for pleasant walks and bicycle rides along the river.
