I have been living in Italy from 1971. I have got used to the Italian ways of live; I accept it but I am unable to preform Italian. After so many years I am unable to use the car horn, even though it is a mandatory accessory in Campania. I must say that, even though there are many come backs, I would not change the Italian way of Life (what ever region) with the English one. Every time I go to England I can not wait to get back to Italy. Does anybody have similar experiences or am i the mad one ? I have just joined and I see that there are a lot of British living in Italy, even though it is not a simple country to live in. bye

Welcome to the forum fjapelling I completely agree with you 'Italy is Italy' at the moment I commute between the UK and Paestum which is not far away from you but I hope to move over permanently in the new year. 

Hi, I'm Pat and I live in Sicily. I certainly don't think you are mad or, if you are, I am too! Italy is certtainly not an easy country to live in but like you, I do not want to live anywhere else! Pat

Hi there, I completely understand how you have fallen under the spell of Italy! I have recently discovered my family who live in Cava d'Tirreni. My wife & I have fallen in love with the place and are hoping to buy a small property in the not too distant future! Tony
