...an Italian language experience!

Patrica, Italy

Nestled in the hills conveniently between Rome and Naples, there is a quaint medieval town named… Patrica.
The town where my father was born.
I was fortunate enough to come back with him decades later to see first-hand everything he recounted to me about his boyhood home. It was a life-changing opportunity I was privileged enough to experience.

Born from passion

This program was born out of my passion for Italy and the language, as well as good fortune. My passion for the language and culture come from my heritage, as both sets of my grandparents were born in Italy, as well as my father. I have been fortunate to reconnect with my ancestry and relatives still living in Italy, experiencing it through them and in many non-touristy towns, seeing the \"real\" Italy and honing my own language skills in the most fun and natural way possible. Not everyone is so fortunate to have these experiences, so I decided to recreate them for others!

Hello, just like you, I am an Italian language learner!

Hello, just like you, I am an Italian language learner!

This program is what I as a learner have always craved. The chance to soak in my surroundings and hone my language skills and practice my Italian in a natural and effortless setting. Spending the mornings in lessons to fine-tune my skills and the afternoons to let the Italian in me bloom.
I’m so excited to bring this possibility and share what I have been fortunate enough to experience over the years, with all of you!
