benevetu (I have read that somewhere - I hope it is right)!
I suspect your weather is nicer than Europes at the mo - but that said - Italy - is a very beautiful country so you can forgive the weather.
Thats one of the reasons I prefer Italy - sure it rains alot - but the mountains are green or snowy at the top
When you come from an area in the UK as I do - flat - is boring
Beautiful terrain, lovely food (I err. on the side of vegitariansim - and there is loads of really good food there), locally produced food - and not like the chemical food markets of the UK - where the food - is so sterilised - it doesnt really understand the concept of blemish, olive oil (admittedly not coconut oil), the wine, the people, my challenge with the language - sure I am 40 (well in July), but I love to learn, the history, the buildings ... I love it -- however - I want you to sell Malaysia to me - I have a friend from Java - I have always said I would do the far east later in my years - but maybe I am the fool.
What drives you to Italy - and not to France or the UK ... or anywhere else in Europe?

Hi Shikin,
and selamat datang to the forum. Well that's my entire Malay vocabulary used up!
We've had some fantastic holidays over there in Penang. Which part of Malaysia are you from?
regards,
Calum
