La Ragazza Italiana
Le avventure di una studentessa italoamericana in Italia
Seregno.
![]() Home-Cooked MealA yummy plate of spaghetti carbonara (without the egg because I hate eggs). I bet Simone I could eat this whole plate of pasta, but with only a few bites left, I lost. | ![]() Authentic Italian Kitchen | ![]() Precise Pasta MeasuringPersonal Italian chef cooking up some pasta. He even uses a scale to measure out the right amount of pasta. |

![]() Lemon TreeApparently some Italians like to grow lemon trees. | ![]() Inside the MetroThe inside of the metro is significantly different than a NY train. It is much cleaner, but similar to a subway. The stops are announced (in italian) throughout the ride, but I was able to find my way. | ![]() Metro to SeregnoThe underground metro is shown above. My first time taking the metro alone was a bit stressful, but with some minor directions, I made it to Seregno alive! |
The best thing I can advise anyone considering to travel or study abroad, is this: MEET A LOCAL WHO WILL COOK YOU TRADITIONAL FOOD FROM THE COUNTRY. I have had some really great pasta in Italy, but there is nothing like a home-cooked meal when you are far away from home.
After a really confusing journey by tram, two metros (trains), and car, I made it to Seregno. This was my first time traveling alone to another city, but I was so lucky to have been able to check out a real Italian home and dine with a real Italian @Simone. Above you will find pictures of the giant place of delicious spaghetti and tomato sauce I almost finished.
