About this listen

 Film director Federico Fellini once said that "a different language is a different vision of life" and at Scuola da Vinci, we embrace this philosophy, teaching Italian language to as many as we can. Scuola da Vinci is based in the beautiful Brisbane suburb of Bulimba where we offer small group Italian classes. However, our teaching extends across the globe with one-to-one online teaching. In this podcast, we go off-road to bring you quirky and unusual aspects of Italy and Italian culture, while at the same time introducing a few Italian words to help you along your journey.

    You know how the inuit have more than 100 names for snow, and the English have close to 1500 names for different types of rain. Well, it turns out the Italians can name and recognize more than 300 different types of bread and every Italian school child knows how to describe the anatomical structure of their daily loaf.

    If you want to know more, then join us on our fantastical journey following a breadcrumb trail left by Italian bakers from the Mediterranean to the Alps, and pick up a few new Italian words along the way.
