Pratica, pratica, pratica!

My friends, Sophie and Damaris, asked me to help them write a letter in Italian to their soon-to-be host family in Italy. It is my pleasure to be able to use my Italian, it's a weird feeling because I've never used my Italian before (other than for schoolwork/studying abroad/speaking with native Italian speakers). I've studied for three years, plus a quarter abroad, and now I get to use it! It's cool, I feel cool.

Here's a sample just to get my Italian flowing better again, it's been a month ugh!:

Cara familia ________,

I nostri nomi sono Damaris e Sophia e vogliamo spedire una lettera siccome abiteremo con voi in agosto. Non vediamo l'ora di arrivare in Italia e la casa vostra.
