Sicilian Culture
I spoke to my TiTi Carol and asked her about her culture today. She stated she is Sicilian and Sicilian’s are very family oriented. She said Sicilian’s are characterized and well known for their foods, art and music, and their roots go back thousands and thousand of years. The language spoken in most Sicilian homes is Italian which is one of the romance languages of the world. My Titi Carol speaks Italian, Spanish and English. Sicily is located at the bottom of Italy. My Titi Carol is very cool and we do a lot of things together.
