Learning Italian - The funny way

Speaking many languages is great. I’d like to speak so many of them… and as of lately I’ve started tackling Russian…

I made it, at last! I got Il Codice Gratta e Vinci, the parody I’ve been writing about last month, on DVD. It’s absolutely hilarious and very well made, with extra scenes shot in Ferrara… Those guys (and girls!) rock…
