Join Speak! in Sicily July 2010

On this cool, day morning in Virginia, it is even more tempting to imagine spending Eight Days in coastal Siracusa, Sicily next year, immersed in the natural, cultural, historic and culinary wonders of this most unique Italian region. Together with Marcello Baglioni, owner of AgaVe Travel Creative (one of Conde’ Nast Traveler’s World’s Top 126 Travel Specialists), I have planned an itinerary which promises to introduce you to Sicilian life in an exciting, yet relaxed way. We will do everything from visit towns like ancient Siracusa and Morgantina to exploring Baroque hilltowns to simply soaking up the beauty of life in the bustling fishing village of Ortigia. Italian students will get a chance to practice what they know, while also learning a phrase or two in the Sicilian dialect! (No Italian is required to attend this trip, however.).
Here are the details. Please download the complete itinerary from the
Travel/Study Abroad page of our website.
