3652 Another newbie! Ciao from Abruzzo

Hello, I'm another newbie. Just recently bought a house in Italy, just recently found this website, you've already answered so many of my questions just from browsing the forums, such as the laminating of the codice fiscali's, what work needs planning permission, when the new IKEA is opening in Ancona and suggestions for heating, so I knew I'd got to become a member. Hello!

Hello Marlene & welcome to the forum!

Is this your permanent home or for holidays?

Welcome to the site and welcome to Abruzzo.
I can only reply to you as I have popped back to Scotland for a few days ( work, dontcha just hate it).

Abruzzo is everything we hoped it would be and more.

if you discount taking 5 months to get a landline telephone and yep , we are still working on email/internet.

Whereabouts are you in Abruzzo?

A Presto

In a word 'Skype'. You download the software for free and can then chat in Italian for free over the net. Then you just search for some Italians who want to chat. The bonus is that you can also type when you are getting stuck and you have online resources such as dictionaries to get you through.

Welcome Marlene! Perhaps you now start providing advice too!
