Part of the problem with traveling around the world is, of course, the language barrier that can present itself.  Many people don’t speak Italian, are afraid to speak Italian or just have never had the opportunity to hear the haunting intonations of this romantic language.

One thing that we thought would be helpful to do is to present you with a few very important phrases that will aid you as you work to accommodate yourself to the “Language of Love”. 

We searched high and low for the perfect translator – the perfect person that can introduce you to this oh-so-beautiful tongue.  And we think we just might have found him.

His name is Bobolini Koplare, the long-lost twin brother of someone we all know very well.  It was so generous of him to give us his time and introduce you to key words.
