Whats the difference between Italy and Sicily?
I am going to study abroad and I am stuck between two programs. What is the difference between Italy and Sicily? Is one better than the other or is it just a matter of opinion. Thanks.
Sicily is a gem, with an incredible history that dates back Millennia, with a rich culture where Greeks, on the East coast, Carthaginians, on the West coast, Romans, Roman-Byzantines, Saracens from North Africa, Normans, French, Spaniards and more recently ???continental??? Italians have played a leading role. The geography is also fascinating, with splendid beaches and an incredible Mountain Volcano (Etna) and a broad plateau. Well worth a period of study. The rest of Italy is undoubtedly just as interesting, so it all depends on what part you have a chance to ???get at??? and the subjects you are supposed to study.
Post these and we'll try and help you out.
Ok Kristina. Rome has the advantage of allowing you to live in a great capital, one of the World's most attractive ones, but... it will distract you terribly. It's full of life and has so much to offer people of all ages, but especially the young. I've been living here for ages, i can assure you.
A school in Sicily will allow you to meet Italian culture gradually and will give you an insight into one particular Region, without distracting you unduly. I've travelled to Sicily very often and toured it extensively.
Toss a coin and good luck.
Both options are positive.
