Il film Luca

Il film d’animazione Luca è ambientato a Portorosso. Portorosso non esiste davvero, è un paese di fantasia, ma si ispira alle famose Cinque Terre, cinque paesi che si trovano in Liguria.
 Portorosso
I cinque paesi sono Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola e Riomaggiore. Il nome Portorosso è ispirato a Monterosso, invece l’aspetto del paese, soprattutto la piazza, è molto simile a Vernazza.

Once upon a time, in a small village nestled in the heart of a dense forest, there lived a young boy named Jack. Jack was known throughout the village for his incredible bravery and quick thinking, and he had a natural talent for solving problems and coming up with creative solutions.





From that day on, Jack became a hero in the eyes of the villagers. They marveled at his bravery and ingenuity, and he became known throughout the land as the Dragon Slayer.

And though many years have passed since that fateful day, the story of Jack and the dragon lives on, inspiring generations of young people to be brave, resourceful, and unafraid in the face of danger.

Devi avere un obiettivo linguistico specifico da raggiungere in un periodo determinato, ma l'obiettivo deve essere specifico e realizzabile.

In 6 mesi puoi cominciare a comunicare in una lingua, anche abbastanza bene, questo sì è possibile. 

Ma avere come obiettivo imparare una lingua in 6 mesi è pericoloso per la tua autostima, molto probabilmente non riuscirai a farlo e al sesto mese penserai di avere un problema, penserai di essere stupido/a.


Imparare una lingua è un po' come avere una corretta alimentazione e fare sport. 

Il consiglio di un mio amico personal trainer è valido anche per l'apprendimento linguistico: vuoi migliorare la tua situazione psico fisica per sempre e per tutta la vita? Devi fare sport per tutta la vita... 
La stessa cosa si può dire per l'apprendimento linguistico!

How a Paperclip Can Change Your Life: The Hidden Power of Everyday Objects

We know a lot of jobs can be done remotely, an arrangement we often call "working from home."

But we also know that working remotely may not mean actually working at home — people work in libraries, in their cars and in cafes.

Many of us like working in the nice atmosphere of a coffee shop. But some cafe and bar owners have had enough of remote workers using their tables.

Some have banned laptops and turned off their Wi-Fi, while others have begun asking remote workers to pay to use the space.

Owners have complained that some people buy one coffee and work in their cafe for up to eight hours, or ask for the music to be turned down so they can have meetings online.

Peter Duran runs a coffee shop in Berlin. He doesn't have Wi-Fi and doesn't let people use laptops. He told Barista Magazine: "We want to be a place where people come to meet each other or be alone, but leave the stress of work outside."

And it's not just about the atmosphere of the place. Remote workers aren't good for business, says Duran, since they spend much less per hour than he pays his workers.

Of course, remote workers themselves don't agree.

On TikTok, one worker said if you pay $8 for a coffee you should be able to choose how you spend your time in a cafe.

However, with so many people working remotely, towns and cities around the world have begun opening remote working spaces where people can work without annoying any cafe owners.
