Learn Italian with Italianme can project you in a different way to look Italy. Are you curious to know how?

When you think of Florence and Tuscany you imagine the art cities with huge monuments and, outside, the countryside with hills, olive groves, vineyards and medieval villages. Probably you think of the food and wine that is produced here and tasted in the best restaurants around the world. Someone may think about fashion and, for someone else, thoughts turn to the greats of the past: Dante, Brunelleschi, Michelangelo, Puccini ….

In fact Florence and Tuscany mean all this for us as inhabitants and we’re very proud. But there is one thing that too often is not told of this region and which can be summarized in two words: innovation and ingenuità. Leonardo, the genius, was born and lived here! Renaissance was first of all study, discovery and innovation in the arts and crafts. I therefore would like to ask you to imagine a different Tuscany from the classic that is proposed and that is the area of research and science, the one that innovates and looks to the future. Do you need an example that will help? Jellyfish Barge, a floating Serra made by the team led by Professor Mancuso of the University of Florence: a floating greenhouse able to produce vegetables without using soli, a completely autonomous system that does not require the ground and can also respond to the need of the lack of water because it can use the sea one with a purification system that uses the heat of the sun.

Tuscany, with this project, was ranked second in the award from the United Nations “UNECE Ideas for Change Award”. The project is attracting interest from America to Singapore. If you have visited the Expo in Milan or you live in Stuttgart you have seen the prototype and if you go to the next architecture exhibition at the Venice Biennale you will hear about it. If you want to immerse yourself in the Italian society actuality and get to know everything, but absolutely everything that moves in Florence and Tuscany, do not settle for the usual blogs and the usual language courses, come and live an authentic experience with Italian me!
