Things I've learned on the farm:
First off, its a "fattoria" not a farm.
"Breakfast" has two different categories, cookies and coffee, and cookies and juice.
Fly swatting and smoking are expected at thedinner table.
Mother nature is boss.
Bed bugs don't usually bite.
Hand washing and hang drying your clothes is surprisingly fabulous.
Perhaps apart from popular belief, Techno DOESNT grow on you.
Christian Bale.
Simpsons in Italian is just as amusing.
Disney channel's, "Camp rock", is not.
Katy Perry's California Girls never gets old despite the repetition.
Allora (ah-loh-rah) can be placed anywhere, anytime, with any kind of inflection in a conversation and is completely acceptable.
The louder you are, the more right you are.
Headbands and sunscreen is REALLY all you need.
Contrary to my previous beliefs…you CAN survive on minimal food until 3pm.
Sirah is the best because the grape is higher on the vine(back pain wise).
Skype.
Conversations are the number 1 form of entertainment.
Hand gestures are worth a million verbal expressions.
Love can always be understood.
Tuscany sun rises are everything.
Any kind of pasta after a day in the fields, is the best kind of pasta.
Hard work is expected and unrecognized, despite it's sacrifices.
Grape stains and back pains, in time, all go away.
Traveling is essential.
Experiencing a different culture is a necessity.
And realizing how similar we all are in the end, is inevitable...
