It's been a long time
A long time has passed since I wrote my last note. Last weekend I met some friends. Some of them came from USA and some of them came from Europe. We spoke different languages and English was the only common language for most of us.
I had to speak English for two days and it was funny and interesting. I also had to admit, by the way, that my difficulties with this language made it hard to communicate with people as I would have liked to do.
A friend of ours came from USA; he has been studying Italian for many years. The first time we met, many years ago, his Italian was quite correct, but he spoke extremely slowly and his accent was a little funny. Now he speaks perfectly: he seems a native Italian speaker and I think that his Italian is almost better than mine!
He teaches Italian, too. I'm sure that he is a good teacher. He often came to Italy on holiday but he lives in the US. I'm impressed that his accent has become so good even if he usually lives in his native country.
I don't expect to become as good as him, but I want to exercise and improve.

I just polished up the text for flow - apart from the USA and seems like, this was perfect! :)

Wow, practice makes perfect indeed! I wish I'd reach this level of fluency in English. I love listening to Italian people talk even though I don't understand a word, the language sounds musical.
