Welcome back, viaggiatori!! So, you’ve landed in Italy 🇮🇹 — and you’re ready to explore! But… wait. You step outside the station, take a deep breath, look around, and— you have **no idea where to go! Don’t worry — in today’s episode, we’ll help you move around town like a true Italian. Survival phrase #1: “Scusi, dov’è…?" This will be your best friend sentence when you’re lost. Scusi, dov’è la stazione? ➡️ Excuse me, where is the station? ➡️ Disculpe, ¿dónde está la estación? You can replace la stazione with il bagno (bathroom), il museo (museum), or la fermata dell’autobus (bus stop). 🧠 Remember “Scusi” → formal, polite (to strangers or older people) “Scusa” → informal (to friends or people your age) Example: 👨‍🦱 “Scusi, dov’è il supermercato?” 👩‍🦰 “Sempre dritto, poi a sinistra!” 📍 Survival phrase #2: “È lontano da qui?” If you’re wondering how far your destination is, just ask: 👉 “È lontano da qui?” ➡️ Is it far from here? ➡️ ¿Está lejos de aquí? If the answer is “No, è vicino!”, great — you can walk. If you hear “Sì, è un po’ lontano…”, maybe it’s time to grab a bus! 🚌 --- Survival phrase #3: “Vado a piedi.” When you want to say you’re walking, use this simple phrase: 👉 “Vado a piedi.” ➡️ I’m going on foot. ➡️ Voy a pie. It’s short, natural, and very Italian 🇮🇹. Example: 👩‍🦰 “Vai in autobus?” 👨‍🦱 “No, vado a piedi.” --- 💬 Mini Recap Here are your must-know travel phrases for getting around: ✅ “Scusi, dov’è…?” → Excuse me, where is…? ✅ “È lontano da qui?” → Is it far from here? ✅ “Vado a piedi.” → I’m going on foot. --- 💡 Cultural Tip In Italy, it’s common and polite to greet before asking for help. Say “Buongiorno” or “Buonasera” before “Scusi” — and you’ll sound immediately more friendly and respectful. Example: 👉 “Buongiorno, scusi, dov’è il museo?” That’s a perfect, polite start to any
