We are going to Rome! Luca and Nico are going to record their memories on this blog.
To begin, they are going to answer a round of questions:
Q: Why are we going to Rome?
Nico: Because we are going to have fun in summer and see lots of friends.
Luca: Because we want to have fun in the summer and explore with our friends. But that's pretty much the same thing Nico said.
Q: What are mom and dad doing in Rome?
Luca: Exploring.
Nico: Exploring with us and doing work, and working at the UW Rome Center
Q: Both mom and dad?
Nico: No, not dad.
Q: What do you think Rome will be like?
Nico: Very fun.
Luca: Very fun, cool, interesting, and a little bit embarrassing,
Q: Why?
Luca: some people are embarrassed when they go to a different place and they don't know how to speak there.
Q: What are you most looking forward to doing in Rome?
Luca: Seeing our apartment.
(Mom: We are staying in a 3 bedroom apartment in Trastevere with a rooftop deck!)
Nico: Playing with the Nanny, Emma.
(Mom: Luca and Nico will also be hanging out with the UW Rome Center Intern, a student who is fluent in both English and Italian, who is living in Rome for a year.)
Q: What's the Italian word you like saying the most?
Q: Anything else you want to say?
