Ah, well, I did get the impression it was a bit...surreal for you to say the least, but felt it wasn't really my place to say! I learned a bit of basic Italian but that's it. Lol, your descriptions of them...they definitely sound like a passionate and robust bunch. Least it wasn't boring? :)
Aw, if I went to visit my parent's home country, which is China, I'd need a translator. Srsly. I'd probably be miserable half the time because the Chinese are not shy about expressing opinions to their own. It's just, I'd rather learn how to speak Italian, German or French.
My image was inspired by yours! I was wondering which Pratchett you were thinking of, most likely Terry. But I looked up Ann Pratchett and ended up reading the synopsis of her book The Magician's Assistant and now MUST get that book.
