American Tourist in Italy Speaks No Italian, Only NEAPOLITAN?!

[Laughter] in 2009 while I was in college I decided to spend a year at an overseas language program in Beijing to learn Chinese not only did I get to try squat toilets for the first time at a Chinese University's International students dormatory I was also randomly assigned as a roommate this handsome Italian man named chiro and I learned a lot from his debonaire Italian ways he a rough around the edges punk rocker from the gritty streets of Naples I an introverted bookworm from the leafy suburbs of New York as a match it actually works surprisingly well since leaving China 15 years ago I've missed him quite a lot and I couldn't turn down the opportunity to meet up with my old friend again since I'm a professional language learner who travels the world these days chiro offered to teach me the Neapolitan language of Naples which contrary to popular understanding is not a dialect of Italian but a language which differs from Italian as much as Spanish does I don't speak any Italian so it was quite funny for neapolitans to encounter an American Tourist who only spoke English and Neapolitan if you want to learn Italian or Chinese or need help with language and culture related stuff Shiro link is in the description but first thanks to rayon for sponsoring this video I've been wearing my rayon earbuds every day for many years now you can actually see just how worn down the cases I like to use them while practicing languages but also just jogging and working out around the city what I also love about rayon earbuds is their snug fit they will not budge seriously I've tested in all sorts of scenarios they come with a wide variety of gel tips so you can customize them perfectly for your ears and I can wear them for hours without any discomfort the sound quality is phenomenal but more importantly I love how the noise isolation blocks out the noisy City and with 8 hours of playtime and a whopping 32 hours of battery life with the included case these earbuds are perfect for long days out without recharging true story during my recent trip to Naples I actually lost the case but I was able to keep using the earbuds throughout the entire trip but here's the best part if you
