Gestures are part of body language, and we all know that Italians are particularly famous for communicating with their hands. Arianna shows us how to "speak" Italian without words.

Arianna gives us more insights on the gestures used by Italians in everyday life, and talks about what body language can reveal about a person.

Arianna, born and raised in Italy, has recently moved to London where she has found a job and is trying to adapt to the English way of life. It's not always easy though...

Antonio is on the beach of Praia a Mare, more specifically, on the Lido Costa Blu [Blue Coast Beach]. Right now it's deserted, but in the summertime this place fills up with beach clubs. The entire coast, extending to Marina di Camerota (Camerota Shoreline), offers many different types of beaches: sand, pebble, stones and rocks.

Annalisa's "Una Finestra tra le Stelle" [A Window Among the Stars] was one of the top songs at the 2015 Sanremo Festival. The video was filmed at a famed Veneto villa, Villa Mosconi Bertani, where Valpolicella wine is produced.

The amazing landscapes in this video were filmed on the volcanic island of Lanzarote, one of the Canary Islands off of Africa.

Anna talks to us about a part of Rome she loves: the Jewish Ghetto, the neighborhood where, in the 16th century, the Jews of Rome were forced to live, and which is now famous for its restaurants, bars, and nightlife.

Villa Borghese is a large park in Rome with plenty of green space, including landscape gardens in both Italian and English style, fountains, statues and a lake. It also offers museums, a café, and a cinema.

Piazza del Popolo is one of Rome's most famous squares. It is at the foot of the Pincio Park. Three churches front on the piazza, two of which are famously known as the twins.

Anna takes us to Paris, to a cold, dark attic room where she tells the beginning of the tragic but very romantic story of La Bohème.

In this second and final segment of La Bohème, Anna, as Lucia, goes on to tell us about her life. What will become of her?

Anna, and her very charming baby, show us an Italian modular transport system and some fun developmental toys.

Anna and Marika tell us about their favorite games and how they had fun as children.
