The Nordic Bath ritual
Saunas and cold baths are fundamental in the Nordic bath culture. At the first Swedish bathhouses founded 1269, the bath servants used birch twigs to give customers' skin a fresh and pink tone. But in 1726 the bathhouses was closed because of their bad reputation and not opening again until the 1820s.
Our Nordic Bath is a light, relaxing and respectful ritual that relaxes the muscles, detoxes the body and improves the blood flow.
This is how it works:
Sit back in the sauna and take deep breaths of the birch scent.
Have a quick plunge in the cold pool or take a cold bucket shower and then do it again so many times you feel like. The more the better!
This treatment is perfect to close your pores and strenghten your immune system.

Translation of an italian museum panel (University assignement)
Giovanni Francesco I Brignole-Sale (1643-1694) preferred to live on this floor rather than the one below and wanted to adorn it commissioning the decoration of ceiling and walls first to Domenico & Paolo Gerolamo and Gregorio De Ferrari, with the cooperation of plasterers and "quadrature"-painters (main room, east halls, lodge), and then to Giovanni Andrea Carlone and Carlo Antonio Tavella. While Bartolomeo Guidobono took care of the west halls. Giovanni Francesco Brignole-Sale but even more his son Anton Giulio II (1673-1710) set at first the family's paintings into some of these rooms which made them look as they were meant to be exposed rather than inhabited. Anton Giulio II actually claimed the luxuriously furnished mezzanine between the two main floors as dwelling. Giovanni Francesco II (1695-1760) undertook new actions around 1740. He transformed rooms that were empity before into picture galleries. Finally, between 1842 and 1845, Antonio (1786-1863), the last of the Brignole Family, enriched the floor with a proper cycle of floorings in polychromatic marbles featuring drawings having highly diverse content.
In 1942, during the Second World War, the hall's ceiling with an ornamental fresco by Gregorio De Ferrari depicting “Fetonte dinnanzi al padre Apollo” (“Phaeton before his father Apollo”) was destroyed. Only the preparatory sketch has survived as a reminder of the lost masterpiece.

Translation of an italian political article - University assignement
Prodi challenges Renzi. "Does he exhort me to move my tent further? Easily"
The founder of the Democratic Party against its current secretary: "My tent is very light. I put it into my rucksack." "The Democratic Party needs to unify, not to split", said Franceschini.
The internal challenge to the Left has been deeper and deeper after the disappointing outcome of municipal elections. Democratic Party's founder Romano Prodi -by an unusual action- wrote and published a paper entering into open discussion with the current Democratic Party Secretary, Matteo Renzi. The former Prime Minister and President of the European Commission wrote: "I've read that the Democratic Party Secretary is exhorting me to move my tent a little bit further. I will do it easily: my tent is very light. In the meanwhile I've put it into my rucksack."
Renzi's statements
The connection is twofold: the methafor for the tent used for the first time in the newspaper "Corriere" -"Politically lively in a tent close to the Democratic Party"- and the "Press release" of the "Nazareno agreement" earlier this morning, where Renzi talked about "continuous debates of the Centre-left" that, "in the end, just help the opponents". During a conversation published in the "Quotidiano Nazionale" (National Newspaper), Renzi said many people -that the editor of the newspaper Andrea Cangini identifies with " Prodi, Orlando, Pisapia, Bersani"- has been preparating their part in the play since several days: they were ready to say "If Renzi loses, the coalition will win", but that's not the reality".
The debate
A few days before elections there was a debate face-to-face between the two leaders. At its end, Prodi assured Renzi his "tent" -although external- would stand close to the Democratic Party. Straight after elections, while talking to the newspaper "Corriere", Prodi explained that "it's personal vetoes which block everything: so many against Renzi, but also Renzi's vetoes against others."
The controversy goes on
In the meanwhile, the controversy within the Democratic Party goes on. "Is that amount is enough to realise that something's wrong? The Democratic Party was born to unify the Centre-left, not to split it", tweeted the Minister of Culture Dario Franceschini, publishing the Democratic Party's voting trend graph in Genoa, Verona, Parma and L'Aquila from 2012 to 2017.
P.S.: If something sounds strange in english that's because it sounds strange in the italian version, too.

MARIA ÅKER TILL ITALIEN
Maria bor i Stockholm och när hon slutar arbeta på sitt kontor, skulle hon vilja åka till Italien på semester för att besöka några fina städer och framför allt för att hälsa på sin morfar som bor i Venedig och som hon har inte träffat på tre år. Då bokar hon en hotell och flyggbiljetten.
Imorgon är det dags att lämna Stockholm. Sitt flygg lämnar halv två och lända i Venedig kvart i fyra. Kanske kommer hon hinna vara fram hotellet vid sex.
Maria trivs bra i Venedig, hon besöker staden, äter delikatesser och åker också båt.
Senare kommer hon ihåg att det finns några vänner som bor i Florens så hon bestämmer att resa dit med tåg för att göra dem en trevlig överraskning. Tåget går igenom det fina italienska landet och Maria ser på landskapet.
När tåget rullar in i stationen, befinner hennes vänner där. Maria visste inte att sin morfar hade ringt upp hennes vän Roberta för att säga till henne att Maria skulle komma hos henne. Roberta hade även förberett ett rum för Maria, och det var hon som fick en överraskning för hon hittade en present från alla sina vänner i rummet på sängen.
(man måste använda några fasta ord och skriva historia omkring dem)

Stockholm
I somras har jag varit i Stockolm med min tjej. Vi har hyrt en lägenhet i Solna (som ligger norr om Norrmalm). Våran vistelse varade bara en vecka tyvärr. Bland sevärdheterna såg vi Haga Parken, Långholmen, Djurgårdens tivolit, Rådhuset, Södermalm och naturligtvis besökade vi Gamla Stan och promenerade över Drottningsgatan. Maten var ganska god. Den godaste rätt jag ätit var den lax med potatisbullar. Den sista dagen åkte vi båt till Fjäderholmarna (EN holme i Skärgården). Då sken solen och vi fotade den vackert landskapet som visades.

Självbeskrivning
Jag heter Andrea, jag är 20 och bor i Pegli en stadsdel till Genua. Jag bor med min familj (min mamma, min pappa och min bror). Jag är i andra året på universitetet och läser svenska, franska och portugisiska som extra språk. I fritiden gillar jag lyssna på musik, träffa mina vänner, läsa böcker och spela fotboll. När jag sluter universitetet ska jag söka efter ett jobb med språk. Jag skulle vilja arbeta utomlands därför här i Italien finns det inte så mycket arbete och karriärmöjligheter.
Jag har valt svenska på universitetet för jag har börjat itressera mig för det sedan många år. Jag älskar det för det är ett intressant och fint språk som tillåter mig att komma närmare nordiska världen. Ett språk som har många liketer med tyska (som jag har studerat tre år), så är det enklare för mig att förstå ords meningen och ordföljden samt tänker jag att Sverige är ett land rik på chanser med en avancerad välfärdsstat, en samhällsmodell som fungerar som ett exempel för många andra länder. Sverige är ett öppet land som tillåter individen att nå sina mål. I min mening kan vara viktig att veta hur talar man svenska trots att alla kan engelska för det kan ändå ge flera möjligheter.
Bland mina intressen inom svenska finns det musiken: jag lyssnar också på svenska musik (hip-hop) och översätter låter; fotboll: jag följer Allsvenskan framförallt hejar jag på IFK Göteborg; till slut älskar jag resa: tyvär har jag varit bara en gång i Stockholm, när jag var på lov i somras. Stockholm är en jättefin stad och var fascinerad av landskapets skönhet. Men den vackraste platsen jag besökt är Fjäderholmarna, en holme i skärgården.
