My object is an Italian monument keychain. My object has four objects attach to it like a charm. Those objects are, the Italian boot with  all the regions of Italy and the colors of the Italian flag which are red white, and green, it also has the Vatican, The Colosseum, The leaning tower of Pisa, and a Gondola. Where I usually put my keychain is on the keychain holder on my backpack with other important keychains. My mom got it when she was on her trip in Italy, usually I get a gift each time my Mom or Dad goes on a trip and I usually ask for a keychain. This object is important to my family because, my Dad’s family is Italian. My grandparents moved to the Madison, Wisconsin when my Dad was young, and they still live there.  My Mom teaches Italian at a university. This describes me because, I’m not Italian, but my family is, and I still love the Italian history, and food. For example, I like Ancient Roman history, and I love cannoli, pasta, pizza, and gelato. I choose Italy as my country for my 3rd grade around the world project, and I really hope I go back to Italy. I’ve been to Italy before but I was too young to remember anything.
