Would that be very exciting to do business like having your own Pizza business in front of the many schools in your country? Italy is considered the maker of the world’s best and tastier Pizza and Pasta. In fact, there are lots of universities and colleges in most historic country that are campaigning for the best culinary schools. Well, if you love cooking and specializing on a certain products like Pizza you can enroll Italy’s top culinary schools. You can enroll in Tuscany, a very promising place in Italy. In this particular place there lies one of the oldest restaurants named Porta del Fabbri owned by great chef Paola Baccetti. This restaurant is been there for more than ten years already. Ms Baccetti also has an Italian cooking school at Casa Ombuto near the old center in Bibbiena, nestled in Tuscany’s beautiful valley. You can enroll in Ms Baccetti’s school if you do love cooking and master Italian cuisine.

There are also culinary universities that teach Italian cooking such as the Lorenzo de Medici, one of the respectable culinary schools in town enrolled by many foreigners. Lorenzo de Medici is located in Florence. If you enroll there you can also meet Prof. Paola Baccetti there as she also teaches culinary subjects in said university. You can really enjoy your stay in Italy’s top universities because there are Italian expert chefs that teach you everything about Italian food and how they are best serve to the people. Superior preparation just like the Crostini, Torte Verdura and Bruschetta are loved by many tourists in Italy. You can enjoy all these best food preparation by expert Italian chefs. That’s why when I had visited this place last year I really enjoyed the sumptuous dinner on that very memorable resto-hopping experience before proceeding to the Vatican City to attend a very important business transaction. We had our breakfast in Vatican and again we tasted the discriminating taste of the Italian version of roasted chicken and grilled seafood. The experience was really very exciting and our vacation in Italy was never a dull moment.

There are now many Europeans that benefit the best educational of the government of Italy like maximizing its education program for non-Italians who what to learn the language. The Italy Ministry of Education has been supporting this program ever since it is created in the country to accommodate many language students. The education minister office always sees to it that students get the good education as far as learning the Italian language. They’ve been monitoring the program so that non-Italians are satisfied the way schools handle this program. They also monitor that all the teachers in language schools are Italians so that students are satisfied with the school’s performance.

According to the Education Ministry there are certain methods to follow when teaching Italian language to foreigners and this is what they are also interested to learn whether it is properly implemented during the course of the programs. The language schools are now developing in the country as many foreign guests and visitors want to learn the language. The program is exciting. In fact, during the first day of classes there is always a fellowship party so that each student knew each other very well especially that they also come from different countries in Europe. The student starts to bond so that they would have a very memorable stay in Italy during the course of their study of the language. The education minister also developed a good method in which students can easily understand the lessons. The modules include General course, grammar course, and grammar courses in Italian. The language schools also organize excursion tours so that the students can also feel how the country develops and learn their culture as well.

NO wonder why Rachel Bilson is cast in the movie Jumper which made Hayden Christensen’s female and gay fans confused on whether to adore him as Jumper or Anakin Skywalker. That’s because Rachel Bilson is Italian-American and most of the scenes in the movie Jumper are set in Italy. My parents are all Italian immigrants but I’ve never been to Tuscany, hometown of both sets of my grandparents. But I will surely be there during spring break.

Of course, I will also be visiting Rome on my trip with my parents. In fact, my parents have already bought through Expedia the Alitalia airline tickets for the four of us (including my younger sister Monica). I am not just a movie buff and as a fan of economic studies, I am glad that we Italian-Americans have contributed in our own little ways to help steer the United States economy from recession and being patriotic by spending a few bucks through our one-week vacation to Italy. By spending in hotels in Rome and Tuscany during spring break, we also play ode to our Italian heritage and contribute to the economy there.

My Italian actress idol is Monica Bellucci. I first saw her convincingly perform as Jesus’s mother in The Passion of the Christ. Later, I saw her playing opposite Bruce Willis as a missionary in Africa in Tears of the Sun. She must be a good actress because she has captured the fancy of Hollywood producers. And they are not just B-rated movies that Monica is hired, they are big-budgeted productions such as The Passion of the Christ and Tears of the Sun. Remember that Tears of the Sun has been handpicked by West Point as a supplemental tool in teaching their students how to do a covert Special Forces military operation accurately.

Monica Bellucci really did justice to the producers of all the Hollywood movies that she has starred in and that’s what makes her my idol. In one of the saddest movies I have ever seen, Irreversible, she played the role of a pregnant woman who was mercilessly raped and killed. And that’s why I adore Monica Bellucci as an actress. But then again, Monica is pure Italian. I also want to throw my moral support to actors of Italian descent in the United States like Anthony LaPaglia who is an Australian-Italian but now in the United States as a mainstay in Jerry Bruckheimer’s Without a Trace.
