Finally! A Method That Teaches You
TRAVEL-READY Italian Without Wasting Time

Planning your dream trip to Italy?
Worried about being tongue-tied or ending up in a tourist trap?

Go from clueless to confident with Intrepid Italian for Travel and I’ll help you avoid the tourist traps and make real connections with locals that will enrich your travels.


❌ What Happens If You Don’t Speak Italian?

Travelling in Italy without knowing the language can quickly turn your dream trip into a stressful guessing game.

You might get by — but you’ll miss out on the richness, connection, and confidence that makes travel truly unforgettable.

Here’s what often happens when travellers don’t speak Italian:

😬 Misorder food at restaurants (and end up with tripe instead of tiramisù)

💸 Overpay for taxis or trains because you can't clarify prices or routes

🚉 Miss train or bus connections because you can’t understand the announcements

🗺️ Struggle to ask for directions and waste time getting lost

😕 Feel isolated when you can’t connect with locals or join conversations

🤐 Panic in emergencies when you can’t explain what’s wrong or what you need

Don’t let language barriers hold you back from the trip you’ve been dreaming of.
There’s a better way — and it starts here.

💬 “I was so frustrated and embarrassed...”

I still remember the feeling — being in Italy, desperate to connect, and completely tongue-tied.

Even though I had Italian roots, I couldn’t speak the language. Every time someone spoke to me, I panicked. I’d freeze, smile, nod… and then later feel embarrassed that I hadn’t understood or replied properly.

Worse still, I couldn’t communicate with my own nonno — my grandfather, the man I was named after.

He only spoke Italian. I only spoke English. So I had to rely on my dad to translate our conversations.

One day, my nonno said something to me — over and over again — and I just couldn’t understand. Finally, I turned to my dad and asked what he said.

“He’s proud of you,” my dad told me. “He loves that you’re named after him.”

I was heartbroken and proud all at once.

That moment stuck with me — because I never wanted to feel that helpless again.

So, I got serious. I learned Italian as an adult, from scratch.

But it wasn’t easy. I tried apps, textbooks, classroom courses — and still felt stuck. I was learning a lot… but I couldn’t actually use it in real life.

That’s when I discovered the 80/20 principle — and it changed everything.

Instead of trying to learn all of Italian, I focused only on the 20% of the language that’s used 80% of the time in real-life conversations.

And suddenly, things clicked.

I could ask for directions. Order confidently. Connect with locals. I felt like I belonged.

Now, I teach this exact method to my students — and it's helped over 3,000 students do the same.

I even shared my approach at the Language Show in London, where I spoke about how little language you really need to transform your travel experiences.

How To Learn a Italian for Travel From Scratch

How do you learn Italian for travel from scratch?

1. Learn “reusable language” essential for travelling around Italy

These are tactics and strategies that I've tested "behind closed doors" for the past 10 years. 

I've boiled everything down into an easy-to-implement system.

Ciao, I'm Michele! I’m a language lover, world traveller, and the creator of Intrepid Italian — trusted by over 3,000 learners worldwide and speaker at the London Language Show.

After learning several foreign languages and travelling across the globe, I’ve seen firsthand how even a little of the local language can transform your trip.

It opens doors, earns smiles, and shows deep respect for the culture.

That’s why I created a simple, step-by-step method to help you learn the essential Italian you need to travel with confidence — no overwhelm, no fluff, just real results.

I created Intrepid Italian for Travel to give you the complete system I use to transform my travels into lasting memories.

I haven’t always been so successful at language learning. I know what it’s like to study constantly and feel like you’re not going anywhere or time is just flying out the window. Truuuust me.

When I first started learning another language, I was in school, could barely remember what we covered in the previous lesson and struggled to make anything new stick. 

In other words, I. Get. It.

And despite spending months going to class, I didn’t make any progress and I certainly wasn’t enjoying wasting my time stuck in a room with an uninspired teacher.

BUT THEN, THINGS CHANGED.

A few years later, I started to develop a system -- one that actually worked -- in order to learn a foreign language efficiently and having plenty of fun along the way.

After three years of studying Italian part-time, I was able to quit my day job to move to Italy. Language was no longer a barrier and I could follow my dream and live La Dolce Vita in Rome. 

Now, over five years later, the community I’ve grown through my blog The Intrepid Guide helps over 100,000 go-getters across the world have more meaningful travel experiences with travel phrase guides and now my online travel language courses. 

Not to mention, whenever I travel to a new foreign country, I adopt this same proven method to learn the local language and become “travel fluent”.

The secret to learning Italian and creating long-lasting travel memories is following a proven method, step-by-step.

Want a step-by-step plan to learn Italian for travel that's REALISTIC? Need a strategy for simplifying Italian grammar?

Then this course is for you!

Unlike traditional travel phrasebooks that force you to memorise lengthy sentences without any understanding of the backbone of the language, what you’ll get is a fun, interactive and realistic approach to learning Italian - specifically for travel.

So, how does the 80/20 method work?

What Will Your Travels Be Like When You Speak Italian?

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed trying to learn Italian — unsure of what to focus on, or frustrated that you're not making progress — you're not alone.

Most traditional courses try to teach everything, from the names of body parts to every possible verb tense, leaving you overloaded with grammar rules you’ll rarely use on a trip.

But Intrepid Italian for Travel works differently. It’s built on the Pareto Principle, also known as the 80/20 rule.

This rule says that 80% of your results come from just 20% of your effort — and it applies to almost every part of life:

  • 💻 20% of articles on a website bring in 80% of the traffic
  • 🏋️ 20% of exercises deliver 80% of your strength gains
  • 🗣️ And in language learning? Just 20% of words are used in 80% of daily conversations

The principle was first observed by Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto in 1896, who noticed that 80% of Italy’s land was owned by 20% of the population. Later, management consultant Joseph M. Juran applied it more broadly to performance, productivity, and efficiency — and the rest is history.

But here’s the key takeaway:

💡 In language learning, most of your progress will come from a small, strategic portion of what you study.

🧠 Learn Smart. Speak Sooner.

That’s exactly why I created the 80/20-based method behind Intrepid Italian for Travel — to help you skip what doesn’t matter and focus only on what does.

Here’s what that means for you:

  • 🚫 You won’t waste time memorising colours, body parts, or useless vocab lists
  • 🚫 You won’t be asked to repeat random phrases with no understanding of how they work
  • ✅ Instead, you’ll learn the core structures, high-frequency words, and real conversation patterns you can actually use — from day one

Every lesson builds on what came before, so you’re always learning and revising at the same time.

This is how you make real, lasting progress — even if you’ve struggled in the past.

By focusing on the most powerful 20% of Italian, you'll be able to:

  • 👋 Introduce yourself
  • 🍝 Order food
  • 🛍 Shop confidently
  • 🧭 Ask for directions
  • 🗣️ And hold meaningful conversations — all in Italian

And the best part? You can create your own sentences, not just memorise them.

The Complete System for Learning Italian for Travel From Scratch

Every Intrepid Italian for Travel module comes with downloadable resources, including audio conversations with native speakers, worksheets, and more. You won't find this material anywhere else. 
Here's how each module of works:

Step 1: Listen, Watch, & Say

Listen to a native speaker introduce new words as they appear on the screen with translations and pronunciation tips.

Step 2: Revise & Memorise

Step 2: Revise & Memorise

Use the wordlist to revise new material and begin to create memory hooks that will help you remember them.

Step 3: Put it into practice

Step 3: Put it into practice

  • Practice what you've learned with fun written exercises based on real life situations in Italy.
  • Listen to the accompanying audio and play the missing character.

Step 4: Quiz your skills

Step 4: Quiz your skills

Revise everything you've learned in the course as you progress to ensure you keep stacking your language building blocks high.

Learn the most essential Italian phrases for travel

If you're one of these 3 types of people, Intrepid Italian for Travel is PERFECT for you: 

Person #1 

You’ve got a trip to Italy coming up and you want to be able to speak Italian.

Person #2

Person #3

You want an introductory course into the Italian language that will help you get to grips with the language.


Intrepid Italian for Travel is for you if you want to learn in record time.

You’re going to fall head over heels for this program if…

✓ You’re a complete beginner and don’t know how to get started

✓ Need a refresher on basic Italian you learned years ago.

✓ You’re SO OVER wasting your time using pocket travel phrase guides that make you feel overwhelmed.

✓ You’ve been trying to learn Italian for a while now, and you’re frustrated and feeling like you’re “not cut out” for success. It’s not true!

✓ You want to learn Italian from the ground up, and want a step-by-step system to speed up your progress. 

✓ You're someone with a "bias towards action" that implements what they learn. 

✓ You understand that, while results can certainly come fast, learning a foreign language takes work.

✘ You’re an intermediate Italian learner and can already speak Italian comfortably and understand most of what you hear. Then sorry, but Intrepid Italian for Travel isn’t for you. Please drop me a line and I'd be happy to recommend something more suitable for you.

I really enjoyed the Master Italian for Travel FAST course, it certainly exceeded my expectations. The learning methodology is great, and easy to follow and found that I progressed much faster in the last 4 weeks than I ever did on my own or using other language apps. Grazie mille Michele, I can't wait until I can put my new skills into action!

Testimonial Michele

I'm so happy I took this course. I've spent years feeling badly about forgetting the Italian I learned and never reaching fluency. I love learning with Michele. I love that she isn't a native Italian speaker.

I would argue that she makes a better teacher because she had to learn just the same way I have to learn. And she is confident enough to provide native Italian speakers in the course so you don't have to worry that you are not hearing the language the way Italians speak it. You make it easy to be successful.

Take this course. It's a gateway course. You'll want to continue. I know I am. A1, A2, B1 and Confident Conversation, here I come.

Michele’s course is the best! I can't even count how many other courses I've tried, as I'm sure, we all have. For me, Michele’s course is simply the best and Michele’s additional videos are invaluable.

The course is the perfect combination of, starting off with the simple phrases and easy sentence structure you need to get by on a visit to Italy, along with the formal instruction to fully learn Italian.

Having just returned from our first trip to Rome, just knowing the simple phrases Michele teaches just to make yourself understood was extremely helpful! I honestly used EVERYTHING I learned! I am now even more inspired to stay with the Intrepid Italian Guide to really master Italian! Grazie, Michele!

- Billy, New Jersey

This program is very intuitive and a nice way to learn a new language. I was able to learn so many words and phrases that will help me navigate through our first trip to Italy.
I love all the
helpful tips and guides along the way as well.

After I was finished with the program, I contacted Michele to find out how to order my sparkling wine correctly and she answered me very quickly.

What a wonderful resource! I highly recommend this program if you are traveling to Italy!

- Jennifer, Texas, USA

"I now feel I can give it a go when we get to Italy and that I will have reasonable pronunciation, even of unfamiliar words. I am confident that I can say and understand numbers, order food and drink and ask questions about a menu.

Best of all my reluctant partner has become enthusiastic and the pair of us have been practising at odd moments of the day. A really good start and confidence boost!"
- Helen Robertson
Testimonial



Having visited Italy 4 times and still not feeling confident in my grasp of the Italian language, I decided to try a different approach. I found Michele’s course on the web, and decided to try it.

There are so many things I liked about this course.
 Michele’s accent and voice is pleasing, each section was short enough I felt like I could commit to daily learning. I really like the downloadable guides as well as the recorded conversations as both full and from different perspectives of the actors. Unlike other travel apps, her course taught me practical words and phrases. Apps I have used before teach useless words such as the Italian word for whale!

I now have a newfound understanding and confidence in communicating in Italian. I have a much better understanding of grammar and the proper use of the language. 

- Rick, South Carolina

Testimonial

We travelled to Milano and Firenze last year and I did your Intrepid Italian for Travel course which helped us so much.

I'm proud to say that I conversed in cafes and ordered coffees and pastries. Everyone smiled as I used my basic Italian. I think they really appreciated my efforts.

I only gave myself two weeks prior to our last trip to establish some phrases.

Your repetitive teaching approach helped me to memorise the words and phrases that
I still remember a year on.

I loved that you gave me the confidence to have a go.

- Larissa, NSW, Australia

"It is a very well crafted course. It makes language learning fun to do and very much aimed at the sort of standard situations anyone is likely to find when visiting Italy. Well done!"
- Don Woodall, UK -
Testimonial

Loved it, loved it, loved it. I’ve been trying to learn languages using various language learning apps for years now and although I know random words I feel no more confident in actually speaking the languages than I was when I started.

I’m 5 days into this course and feeling more confident in actually speaking Italian than I am while using the apps.

This course cuts through all the unnecessary stuff the apps were teaching me and focuses on getting me comfortable and confident to put my new-found Italian to use.

The audio and worksheets are my favourite as it gets me to speak and write which is definitely speeding up the learning process for me.

I cannot recommend this course highly enough. Definitely worth every penny.

Thank you Michele.

I can’t wait for my next trip to Italy.

- Basil, London, UK

The course improved my confidence to try out simple phrases and decreased my fear of making mistakes. Even though I "completed" the course in 14 days, I still practice the role-playing scripts for everyday situations.

I took Michele's Italian travel course before a three month trip to Italy and it was awesome! I really like her 80/20 method (learning the top 20% of the language so that you can communicate in 80% of situations that you find yourself). 

The lessons build on each other with lots of repetition. You listen, watch and practice.
 I found it fun and very easy to follow. She also has tons of free guides and worksheets on her website to supplement her courses.

Best of all,
she has always responded quickly when I have reached out with a comment or question which I really appreciate!

I've been following Michele for a number of years, and her method to learning languages is practical and efficient, in a non-overwhelming way.

Q: "What makes Intrepid Italian for Travel different?" 

Have you ever joined an online course and felt like, "Okay, there's a lot of content material here ... but I still don't know what I need to actually do!". 

I know I have. And it's super frustrating! 

That's because most people think online courses are all about piling on as much information as possible. Which is why they brag about "28 modules and Modules" and "120 hours of material". 

120 hours? Seriously?!

The best online courses break things down into manageable chunks that you can take action on immediately. 

And that's exactly what Intrepid Italian for Travel does for you. 

That way, you never need to figure anything out. Or wonder what to do next. Not sure what the difference is between a verb and a noun? I give you a simple technique for nailing different grammar terms. Want to learn how to ask questions or introduce yourself? I show you step-by-step. Think of any questions you may have about learning Italian for travel, and I'm 100% sure I cover it inside this comprehensive training program. 

Q: “Why should I invest in this course when Duolingo is free?”

Duolingo is a great language tool when you've got plenty of time on your hands and don’t have any specific language goals that you’re working towards. What Duolingo doesn’t give you is a clear roadmap to learning Italian specific for travel.

In my course, Intrepid Italian for Travel, you only learn what you need to thrive in typical travel situations. What you get is targeted learning that doesn’t waste your time.

Have you ever seen those funny memes called, “Stuff Duolingo Says” that shares examples of strange phrases Duolingo teaches you? For example, one of them was “I’m eating bread and crying on the floor”, another one is “They are washing the holy potato”. Seriously, Google it and you’ll see what I mean.

Plus, with my course, you also get access to a private Facebook group with direct access to me (your teacher) where you can ask for feedback and receive extra support.

Q: "What if I am unhappy with the course?"

I would never want you to be unhappy! If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact me in the first 30 days and I will give you a full refund.
