Franco Battiato sings about love philosophically. It's useless to have regrets, since we can't go back in time.

Tozeur is a city in southwestern Tunisia, near the Algerian border. The train line referred to in the song was originally built for the king in the early 1900s when Tunisia was still a French protectorate. More info about the song here.

Francesco goes about explaining philosophy to children using a jar. Philosophy is like magic, but while magic involves objects, philosophy involves ideas.

Is the jar full or empty? Let's see what Francesco and the kids have to say about it.

Francesca Vitalini describes her training in journalism and her work for a newspaper in Garbatella, a neighborhood of Rome.

What kinds of jobs does a journalist do? Francesca explains what her job entails.

Besides working as a journalist, Francesca is involved in some international projects for sustainability. Here, she tells about a hospital in Gaza.

"Sunshine for Palestine" has set in motion an innovative project for teaching the latest scientific theories to young people, and it has been enormously successful.

Everything you need to know about buying a used car! Join Francesca as she talks to the dealer, and get up to speed on your automobile vocabulary.

Francesca finds a note on the windshield of her car. Her driving instructor has to explain that it's not a note, but a parking ticket.

We follow Francesca along to a riding stable for lessons. The place is called Ciampacavallo and its peculiarity is that its horses would have ended their lives badly, had it not been for this charitable organization.

Francesca starts her lessons at the stable by taking a halter and lead rope to go and meet a young horse by the name of Stella.

While Francesca is getting ready to lead Stella to the round pen, we find out why horses don't like being looked at. We also discover that the horses at this stable go shoeless and without bits. And yes, Francesca does finally get on the horse!

Il formaggio (cheese) is rarely missing from an Italian kitchen. This video takes us to the mountains north of Bergamo where the Monaci family has kept the family cheese-making tradition going, beginning in the stable where the cows are taken care of during the colder months.

Lo stracchino is a soft, mild but flavorful cheese that's spreadable, and we find it in supermarkets all over Italy. But the kind Francesca's family produces in the mountains, with traditional tools, is on a whole other level. Why is this cheese called stracchino? There is a fascinating reason. Watch the video.
