What's going on in Italy? Marika, Guido, Serena, and Anna give you the latest.

Silvia is an editor (in real life) for Il Fatto Quotidiano (The Daily Event), a national newspaper with some special characteristics. Silvia tells us what kind of news she covers, and some of the problems she encounters.

Composting is becoming more and more popular in Italy, and many towns will supply you with a composter, not to mention a discount on your sanitation expenses! In addition, there's plenty of useful new vocabulary in this video, The voice over is not particularly slow, but it's nice and clear.

Francesca and Daniela have fun demonstrating the different conjugations of the verb mangiare (to eat) in context. You'll have fun learning them!

Mothers Day is approaching. Four mothers (including our Marika!) give us their thoughts on what it means to be a mother.

Here we are at the last part of the story of this unique restaurant. Anna and Marika relax over coffee, and tease each other about being just a bit fuori (nuts).

How does Eva's operation "Robin Hood" end up? Tune in to this last segment and find out!

Our music lessons continue with Alessio, who shows us the special tool for deciphering the notes on a pentagramma (staff). If the chiave (clef) changes, so do the names of the notes!

Tiziano Ferro talks about his relationship with pen and paper. Familiarize yourself with sonno and sogno, both of which have to do with the night.

Tiziano Ferro starts off his "eco-tour" sponsored by the Italian electric company, Enel. He suggests small ways in which each of us can save on energy.

Maurizio is a young student from the province of Pescara, going to school (university) in Rome. He tells us a little bit about himself, and his life in Rome. This is an excellent opportunity to compare how Italian treats tenses with respect to English, especially the English present perfect, and present continuous.

Another little journey back in time. This time Anna and Marika discover what pigeons have to do with dead people!
