Italian Conversation Club — The Village (Real Practice, Real Confidence)
**You’ve been living in Italy for months… maybe even years…**
**but you still don’t really *live* in Italian.**
You understand.
You try.
But when it’s time to speak, something holds you back.
Not enough practice.
Too much pressure.
Or simply… no space that feels safe enough.
I know this, because I’ve lived it.
Learning the local language is what finally made me feel at home.
That’s why I created this.
**Welcome to The Village — a space to *experience* Italian, not just learn it.**
This is for you if:
– you want to actually speak, not just listen
– you’re willing to make mistakes and grow from them
– you value connection, presence and a positive group energy
– you’re ready to step out of your comfort zone (gently, but consistently)
This is **not** a traditional class.
And it’s not for passive learners.
In The Village, we:
– practice real-life conversations
– use role play, games and embodied exercises
– support each other (no judgment, no pressure)
– build confidence session after session
The goal is simple:
to help you feel more at home in Italy — in your body, and in your voice.
I guide the space to make sure everyone speaks, feels included, and grows.
**Small group. Real connection. Consistent practice.**
If this resonates, contact me and I will share all details to attend:

Eurovision Watch Party @ QUO Bar - 14 May
After the chaos of the first semifinal, we go again.

Aperitivo and Hang-out in English
Hello everybody,
I usually look for events on Saturdays but I can hardly ever find any, so I asked myself, "Why don't I organise one ?" The idea is to meet at **Next Bar in Via Crema 7** (Very close to P.ta Romana underground station / yellow line) at **18:00** and hang out there for some time. You can also enjoy drinks and eat for 13 Euros (p.s. the buffet is mind-blowing).
Guests are required to buy their first drink upon entry.
I kindly encourage you to RSVP during the week if you can.
I really hope to meet you on Saturday! Don't worry if you can't see many people who've RSVPed, the event is advertised on other platforms, so there will be plenty of people to mingle with.
When you get there ask for **Riccardo**.
Feel free to WhatsApp me at **+39 334 283 1963**
During the event, you'll have the opportunity to join our WhatsApp group by scanning QR codes displayed on the tables to stay in touch.
Looking forward to a great time together!
Best regards,
Riccardo
