Please note This post will only make sense if u know Welcome to Holland by Emily peril Kingsley.
I was born in Holland. A land of windmills and trollops. but sometimes I wonder what is Italy like Most of my family are Italian so naturally I wonder what it is to be Italian too. I land of pizza and history.
I wonder what it feels to be able to speak the Italian dialect to be so easily understood most everyone around seems to know how to speak it fluently. Like the land in which it originated in Italian seems so grand . I have tried and tried to speak it but still people do not understand.
I wonder what it is like to be from Italy. To blend in with the crowd. Too not have to prove myself worthy and that I do know what to do. I wonder what is like too ride a moped with the wind through your hair. I will never know what it is like to be from Italy.
I will never know what it feels like to be a full bread Italian , but I have a rough idea. I have met many people from Italy and have played some Italian games learned some stuff from the banks of Venice. Some people call it a Inclusion ,but to me it is more then a word. can help me understand Italy and it;s people which is so important because Italy has so many people and sights and a sounds : while Holland has so few. I learn to be a Hollander alongside the Italian because there is so much in Italy to discover and the more I discover maybe my parents dreams of creating similar thing will come true. Holland has it tulips and is known for it slower pace and I was born into this but when it comes down to it I still need food shelter and lots of love, Because if I can not get the full Italian experience I can get the whole experience of love
