Non nono Italiano, ma la mia findanzata è di Milano! My fiancé is a native Italian, born, raised and currently living in Milan, Italy. We are 6,000 miles away from each other, but very much in love.

I had been studying Italian before meeting my bride, but falling in love her had deepened my love of the culture.

I have a new blog where I document our year until our marriage and the ups and downs of our merging cultures. If interested in keeping track, please feel free to visit!

My family is looking to move to Italy as missionaries in the summer of 2011. We aren't sure where we will be moving as of yet, I have heard that we may possibly start out in Rome, or somewhere in the south, but we aren't sure. I don't know yet what kind of work we will be doing yet, but I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what the situation is with orphans in Italy now. I have just felt lately that our work might involve some kind of service involving kids, I just don't know what yet. Thanks for any info on this that you might have. ]]> Welcome!

my names Liv from New Zealand and I've just joined! I'm moving to Vicenza in January 2010 to be an au pair for two children for 5 months.

Just doing the introducing myself thing... but if possible I would love some advice on what to pack for my stay, I've read the lonely planet guides etc but would prefer some ideas/advice from locals!

Also I have been searching the net for some information on places to do night classes/sports/activites in the Vicenza area, but as I'm just a beginner with the Italian language, I haven't had much luck and I'm probably not looking in the right places!

Thanks, and best wishes :) ]]> Welcome!

I am a student of History in California, and I would like to continue my schooling in Italy. I am working on the language (though that will not reach completion until I actually have people to practice with.) The problem is, I have no idea how to go about this.

Does anyone have any suggestions, resources, or anything at all that would assist my on my little personal quest? I just finished my AA in pointless stuff, and was going to transfer to UCSD, but when I started thinking about it, I realized that if I really wanted to study classic history, I needed to go to the source. Hence, the beginnings of this. Anything you have would be helpful! :)

Brief Description

The site of the Dolomites comprises a mountain range in the northern Italian Alps, numbering 18 peaks which rise to above 3,000 metres and cover 141,903 ha. It features some of the most beautiful mountain landscapes anywhere, with vertical walls, sheer cliffs and a high density of narrow, deep and long valleys. A serial property of nine areas that present a diversity of spectacular landscapes of international significance for geomorphology marked by steeples, pinnacles and rock walls, the site also contains glacial landforms and karst systems. It is characterized by dynamic processes with frequent landslides, floods and avalanches. The property also features one of the best examples of the preservation of Mesozoic carbonate platform systems, with fossil records.
The nine components of The Dolomites World Heritage property protect a series of highly distinctive mountain landscapes that are of exceptional natural beauty. Their dramatic vertical and pale coloured peaks in a variety of distinctive sculptural forms is extraordinary in a global context. This property also contains an internationally important combination of earth science values. The quantity and concentration of highly varied limestone formations is extraordinary in a global context, whilst the superbly exposed geology provides an insight into the recovery of marine life in the Triassic period, after the greatest extinction event recorded in the history of life on Earth. The sublime, monumental and colourful landscapes of the Dolomites have also long attracted hosts of travellers and a history of scientific and artistic interpretations of its values. ]]> Welcome!

I'm from Peru. hello everybody.

My question is if is possible to get the "patente" without permesso di soggiorno because in my case, I'm waiting for it, I mean, I have everything in rule, but to have the permesso in my hands I must wait 6 or 7 months, and actually I can't, I want to drive my car as soon as possible. So, You think is possible to get the patente just with the registration code for the permesso di soggiorno? ]]> Welcome!
