Rome is historical city. We saw a lot of monuments. Rome is a fascinating city with its historical places such as Collesium. The day after, we flew to Sicily. First day in Sicily, we met with our hosts then went home and rested. Second day, we went to school to present our slides about traditional foods and drinks. We presented them in school's auditorium. And we prepared a panel about our country. Then, we toured in Catania. Other days in Italy, we visited historical places, theaters. We did shopping and bought gifts for our parents. We tasted other countries' traditional foods. One day we went to Mount Etna, it was very amazing.  Italy has a lot of captivating places, buildings. All of these days were wonderful. And we have unforgettable memories! by Sedef Işık, We had special memories in Italy. At first, we arrived in Rome and looked over this historical city. The next day we went to Sicilia and were taken to the school. After we met some Italian friends, our hosts took us home. The next day we went to school and people from each country displayed their cuisines. We strolled along Acireale's streets. Otherwise we made our way to Palermo, it was a good place. And we had time to enjoy with new friends. When we set out to the Mount Etna we had chance to discover the nature and we were over the clouds. Then we went to Catania and there were nice shops, thus we were able to buy some souvenirs. The last place we went was Siracusa. There was an antique theatre and we took many good photographs. At last night we had a pizza party and had a good time with all friends. That week was a good memory for all of us. We were acquainted with warmhearted friends, different cultures and exciting places.
