Located less than a 100 m away from the Ponte Vecchio this centralli located trattoria is excellent value for money. You will find it on a narrow street called Via Stracciatella, to the left of Piazza di S.
I did not want to hijack Ronald's thread on Sardinia and the G8, but following a post on the same topic by Adriatica and my own commennt, I thought that it may be interesting for many to see what we are talking about.
Hi John and welcome. Have you considered a gas system? Is it possible in your area? We installed a new caldaia, had it connected to mains gas (which was available with a very small installation) and we paid for the lot much less than the cost that you quote for a pellet boiler (also have a look at the cost of the pellets and do some calculations there). If mains gas is unavailable look at the option of having a tank as gas bottles are expensive. My advice is to explore all possibilities.
Monica's advice is correct. You must make several trips, visit different areas until you find the one that really suits you and make a lot of research before you make any definite move. And we all look forward to hearing more from you and your plans.
Andrew's advice is correct, you need an accountant. You also need to contact your local Chamber of Commerce as generally they are the ones issuing the licence. Every location has different rules and requisites. This thread from the old forum may be of help: www.italymag.co.uk/forums/general-chat-about-italy/11880-advice-needed-licenced-premises.htmlGood luck with your plans!
Hello Karyl and welcome! Your question is a difficult one. People of all ages move to Italy for different reasons. Some find that it is right for them, some consider it a mistake and return to their homelands. To move to another country is not an easy decision, sometimes you are forced to do it but when you are able to decide freely, you must consider very many aspects before taking the plunge. Ask yourself questions such as:Why am I really moving to Italy? If it is because you are unhappy at home, then, try to find why is it so because you may have the same problems in Italy.How am I going to survive in Italy? Do I have enough money to do it?What about my family and friends in the USA? Will I miss them?And also, you need to speak Italian. That is a must if you want to lead a normal life.Other members may be able to add more questions to this small list.We all do things for different reasons, you may have yours, they could be very valid and perhaps your fate takes you to Italy. But do not look at this project through rose-tinted glasses.Whichever is your decision I wish you good luck and all the best.
I agree with the above translations. It all depends on whether the word "ricordo" refers to just the photograph or perhaps some other documents which were enclosed. The words, and in Spanish they are very similar, remind me of similar photos and notes which are kept in an archive that keeps personal documents related to the Spanish Civil War.
Hi Cheryl and welcome. I agree with Nigelgh's advice, Ikea may be helpful. There is an Italian furniture chain called Mondo Convenienza, which also has some good prices. Have a look to see whether there is a store near your place: www.mondoconv.it/punti-vendita.aspxIn any case, I would not spend a fortune on furniture if the apartment is going to be rented. Just some nice looking things should do.Best wishes regarding your plans
Hi Jane and welcome to the Community. Sorry to hear about your problems but as you rightly say these are difficult times everywhere although we think that this extreme situation will start changing in a few months. Also, to find work in Italy is not an easy task, even for Italians, but keep on going, contact prospective employers, ask around, the way to find work is by promoting yourself.Another possibility is to create your own work. Find what is missing in your area that you would know how to do and start your own small business.As for your husband, he needs a lot of encouragement and help and it will be very difficult to give those if he does not open up. Many people with chronic illnesses and disabilities are working, perhaps part-time, but this gets them out of the house and builds up self-confidence.You are going through difficult times, but light is at the end of the tunnel. Keep on fighting. I'll keep you in mind in my prayers. Let us know how you go.Best wishes
Ciao Linda, benvenuta!I am sure that you will find fresh Christmas wreaths if you ask a few florists around. I believe that I have seen them. Otherwise, you can make your own as the bases are sold at craft shops. Here you have some instructions, in Italianwww.nataleitaliano.it/b/decorazioni-di-natale.htmlHave a wonderful Christmas!
As it is always the case, it is the owner who is at fault and not the animal, even if he seems to be quite agressive. I think that perhaps it needs to be reported to the police because dangerous animals must be kept on a lead and wear a muzzle.I do hope that the greyhound will recover soon, what will be more difficult is to make him forget the attack.
I agree with Ram, get a proper valuation and then you will know whether it is worth all the trouble and money it is going to cost. Are the sisters single and are there more heirs who support their attitude? Is there a will? A share of only 1/8 makes me think that there are other heirs involved as well.
