  1. Do you have Italian origins? Are you willing to learn more about your Italian roots? Choose Scuola Leonardo da Vinci’s “Discover your origins” course! Nearly 30 million migrants left Italy between 1861 and 1985. The majority of them left in the decades following the Unification of Italy, during the so-called "great emigration" (1876-1915). Entire towns saw their population halved in the decade between the 1800s and 1900s: many Italian families moved to North America and South America (around 600.000 Italians are currently living in Brazil!), but also in Europe, to neighbouring Switzerland, France, Germany and the United Kingdom. There is […]

  2. Punctual as ever, from 30th march to 1st May, Messer Tulipano, the extraordinary floral event that has been held for 24 years in the park of the Castle of Pralormo, returns to announce the arrival of spring in Turin. With the extraordinary flowering of over 100,000 tulips and daffodils, the event involves the entire park, designed in the nineteenth century by court architect Xavier Kurten. Kurten, creator of the most important English-style parks of the Savoy residences and in Piedmont, took advantage of the natural scenery of the mountains of the Monviso group in Pralormo to create a park with […]

  3. Classical mythology has strongly influenced the Italian language and culture.

  4. There are so many students at our school who, for one reason or another, choose to completely change their lives by moving to Italy. And we are happy, honored and proud to help them in this incredible change. Today we meet Akiko, a Japanese girl who studied with us for several months between 2019 and 2021 and moved to Italy to follow her heart. In fact, she has now been living in Piacenza for four years with her Italian partner. We asked her to tell us about herself in a short interview, where she also explained some differences between the […]

  5. When thinking about Italy, one of the first things that comes to mind is, without a doubt, the pasta. But today we would like to ask a second follow-up question: What associations do people then commonly have with pasta in Italy’s capital, the Eternal City? Whether we imagine bucatini or rigatoni or perhaps prefer tonnarelli and mezze maniche, pasta is an undisputed protagonist at the Roman dinner table. When walking through the winding, cobblestoned alleys of Rome’s historic center – whether you are Roman, Italian, or perhaps hail from another part of the world – stopping in a typical trattoria […]
