Red & White, a trip to remember. ( maybe ).

We are going to take you on an interesting trip today, to explore and taste Friuli Venezia Giulia. This will be a journey to remember as we would like to let you know more about our region through its culinary culture. Our itinerary will guide you through Trieste, Gradisca, Cormons and Cividale. We think the most important part of visiting a place is to understand its origins, art and cultural history. We believe that food and drinks also play a key role in this, and that's what we are going to present to you. This will be a great experience!! Enjoy your trip!

Let's start from the beginning:

Day 1:
The Tour will start in Trieste at 9 o'clock in the morning. A guide will take you through Trieste and its marvels while letting you taste all of its signature dishes and drinks. In this part of the Tour the group will move afoot through the city and visit its historical caffees, moving then in one of the historical restaurants of the area. You choose!!



Caffees:


  • Caffè Tommaseo
  • Caffè San Marco
  • Caffè Eppinger

During this visit the guide will inform you about the main attractions of Trieste, like the Castello San Giusto, its churches and its history, probably in front of a good cup of coffee or one of the typical sweets the city has to offer like the Putizza, Pinza or Presnitz.

During this time together you will also taste the wines the city has to offer:

  • Vitovska ( White wine )
  • Malvasia Istriano ( White Wine )
  • Glera ( White wine )
  • Terrano ( Red Whine )

Day 2:

In the second day you will move through our region, tasting our wines, cold cuts, cheese and visiting the most important wine-producing cities in the Collio area. Starting from Cividale and ending with Gradisca. The group will move aboard an 8 seat-bus, driver included.

Let's go all out

Hi, welcome to my new post. Today I want to share with you my thoughts about the internship I'm about to do at the end of the course.
I'm so fired up because that's my chance to get a job and start my way to make a great career and be acknowledged for who I am, but I'm also scared because things don't always go the way you want them to so I could have a bad experience.That's what scares me the most, to find out that what I want to do is not as I expected it to be. Of course I'll do my best to make things go right, we'll see how things go.
That's it for today, hope you guys enjoyed reading my post as much as I enjoyed write it. And, as always, see you next time.

I Love English!


A lesson that I liked the last week is where we begun to write the blog.

From the beginning of English lessons we had to do this free writing exercise with some rules to follow:
  1.  Don't think.
  2. Keep your hand moving.
  3. Don't correct yourself.
  4. Quantity is better than quality.
  5. Go crazy.

I think that this exercise is important to emprove English language because once you did it on the paper, to talk comes easier.
It's nice to share the ideas and experiences on the blog with others, maybe it's too early but could be funny and nice to discuss and comment the posts...
I think that when you write, your mind and toughts becomes clearer and you become more selfawarned about what is happening to you especially in your head.
It's like listening to your inner voice and it helps to remember better the things that you could forget.
When I wrote my introduction on my exercisebook it made me feel happy.
It will give us the opportunity to stay in contact and share our experiences at the Hotels by the way.

Keys are Magical

As a former art student I always love to explore the hidden meanings of small things around us, everything could symbolize something bigger, something more universal. 
So, today I will focus on what I think is the mosr representing symbol of our future job of choice: keys.

When I graduated my family gifted me a lovely key pendant with a note attached - may this be the key of your success-  and here it lies one of the powers of this tiny object: opening.

It may be opening something material: an hidden treasure's chest, the door of your dream home, the lock of your secret diary, a mysterious drawer you never looked into.
It may be opening something more immaterial: the heart of someone you love, another level of consciousness, the doors of the cage we all close ourselves once in a lifetime.

A key could mean freedom. liberation, discovery, knowledge of something new.

On the otherside we have the opposite power: closing. With keys you could lock away something secret, something precious. They provide you privacy and safety, you could rest easy if you feel protected by this small piece of metal which keeps away everything you don't invite. You could lock in something so it could never escape.

A key could mean protection, security, power of choice, stability.

In your life you will touch lots and lots of keys and I invite you all to don't forget that keys could open and close but the choice of doing that it always lies in your hands and that's where the true magic is.

Love,
Holly


Lizzie's here!

Hello everyone!
I'm Lizzie and I'm 30 years old. I've been living in Trieste for a year and now I'm attending this course to become a receptionist.
The reason why I am here is that I decided to challenge myself, as I always do, without realizing it at first. I constantly fight against my shyness trying to get involved in activities in which I have to show myself and that pull me out of my comfort zone.
I love to learn languages, indeed I dedicated my studies to learn English, German and Spanish.
I went to Andalusia in Spain for four months during my university course and I fell in love with this region. There I found a sort of second home. I'm really into dancing, although I don't have much time and opportunities now to keep practicing.
One of my biggest passions is creating handmade jewelry; I didn't know anything about that until two years ago, when, for a coincidence,  I started buying magazines and materials to learn by myself how to get started.
I worked as a waitress but this isn't a job that really suites me: I took the chance to do something different and give myself an opportunity after spending too much time trying to find another job, but without results.
So now I'm here, with big dreams and expectations: I hope all of them could come true!

My experience about this course and a lesson I liked

Hello everyone today I'm going to tell my experience in this course and a lesson that I found interesting. Well the lesson that I liked was English because I learned new things and how to communicate in a different language with other people.
Especially the free writing is useful for all of us because you have the oppurtunity to write what you feel inside. 
About the course well is becoming interesting we are all discovering how we are going to work someday in a hotel. I'm sure that we all are going to give our best and we will be fine.

Course lessons.

All the lessons of this course are very interesting, but I've enjoyed the most the "Front/Back Office" lessons, English lessons and German lessons.
The first one because there was the chance to learn how to deal with the guests in many different situations, even doing some simulations that were also funny in the end.
The English lessons has been very useful to improve both listening and speaking, and the German ones to improve a little more my level, which is low.

Hi, here Denis from Trieste
