Talking about my hometown (PLEASE CORRECT IT:) My hometown is Reggio Calabria an italian small city situated just in front of Sicily. I lived there for most of my life then I had to move in Rome because of university however Reggio is the city of my heart. It is really famous for its landmarks such as Riace's Bronzes or its sandy beaches and certainly for its stunning view. I really loved living in Reggio Calabria although all its issues because as most small cities it has a strong sense of community. I know that it could be sound silly but for example, in my hometown I knew most of my neighbours and every morning I used to say hello to them while here in Rome people act like strangers. Most of the time I miss my native city because living in Rome exhausted me. I do not really like crowded and bustiling city because I am a sleepy person who do not enjoy too much nightlife. I know that Rome has a long history and maybe is one of the anciest city in the world but it is really huge as well! I hate being stuck in traffic and people are always rude expecially while they are driving. I attached a shot taken from my balcony in Reggio Calabria

Talking About My Hometown (Please Correct It :)


My hometown is Reggio Calabria, a small Italian city located just in front of Sicily, at the "toe" of the "Italian boot". I've lived there for most of my life, then I had to move to Rome because of university, however, Reggio is the city where my heart is. It is really famous for its landmarks, such as Riace's Bronzes, or its sandy beaches, and certainly for its stunning views. I really loved living in Reggio Calabria, although it has its share of issues, like most small cities, it has a strong sense of community. I know it sounds silly, but in my hometown, I knew most of my neighbors, and every morning I used to say hello to them.


Here in Rome though, people act like strangers. Most of the time, I miss Reggio Calabria, because living in Rome is tiring. I do not really like crowded and bustling cities, because I am a person who does not enjoy a lot of nightlife. I know that Rome has a long history, and perhaps, it is one of the most ancient cities in the world, but for me, I find it too big and overwhelming! I hate being stuck in traffic, and people are always so rude, especially while they are driving.


Below is a picture I took from my balcony in Reggio Calabria.


Overall Giovanni, I think you did well, and I really enjoyed learning about Reggio Calabria! I noticed a few grammar mistakes with regards to comma usage, and word choice, however, these were minor. I also noted a few spelling errors, but again these were minor. Overall, a nice job my friend! If you have any questions, please let me know!

My hometown is called  Reggio Calabria, a small, Italian city situated just outside of Sicily. I lived there for most of my life, but then I had to move in Rome because of school. However, Reggio is still the city of my heart. It is really famous for its landmarks: such as Riace's Bronzes, its sandy beaches, and its stunning views. I really loved living in Reggio Calabria, despite all of its issues, because, like most small cities, it has a strong sense of community. I know that it might sound silly, but in my hometown I knew most of my neighbours, and every morning I used to say "hello" to them while here in Rome people act like strangers. Most of the time, I miss my native city because living in Rome is so exhausting. I do not really like bustling, crowded cities because I am a homebody, who does not enjoy the nightlife very much. I know that Rome has a long history and  is one of the most ancient cities in the world, but it is just too big for me. I hate being stuck in traffic, and people are always rude, especially when they are driving.
