Here’s your typical American Dream....

And here’s my....American Dream...In Italy.

PD-1923

Page 4: American Dream Project 3

My dream is to spend at least a year or two, maybe more, living in

Italy and touring the country.

And here’s how I’ll get there.....

Page 5: American Dream Project 3

Step 1: Language and

Culture

I will continue to study Italian language and culture throughout high-school and

college.

Ciao!Ciao!!!!!

Step 2: Get a job and start saving money.

This summer I will start saving money from my summer job. I’ll continue through college with whatever job I have in college.

Step 3: Go to college and get a degree.

Next I’ll work hard in college and graduate with a degree in some

undecided thing so I can get a job.

Yes, I’m now Condoleezza Rice

Step 4: Get a real job and earn a real amount of

money.

After college I will get a real job (hopefully) and continue to save money for a round trip flight to Italy, travel expenses, as well as the things I will

need to take with me.

Theoretically, I will have met someone or know someone who would be willing to go with me to Italy (I mean who wouldn’t want to go to Italy?). I will also

need a map so I won’t get lost and the guide so I don’t get bored on the plane.

Step 5: Find someone to go with me to Italy and buy a guide book to the country

before I go to the air-port so I’ll have something to read

on the plane.

Step 6: Italy

Step six is where I spend all of my time touring the

country and going to cheese and wine tastings and having an all around great

time.

Step 7: Reality

In step 7, I will eventually run out of money and be unable to get enough work in Italy so I will return to reality in the United States where people speak my

language and serve lower quality food. Usually. I will get a job, possibly go back to the one I had before Italy, and have a family and eventually take any kids I might have to Italy and show them all my favorite places. In a weird way, I will eventually fulfill something a lot closer

to the usual American Dream than one might think.
