Some of them are indeed beautiful. Some of them are also difficult. Getting good food is easier.

Thanks for clarifying.

Quite a lot of them actually, and perhaps not just Italian ones :eek:

Men can be difficult.

One wonders why you are still here upsetting many posters when you clearly dislike us so much and think we are all gloomy, Italy hating expats?

How many of us have actually said that we're unhappy here? Surely you're not so naive that you think we're all happy holiday makers here? I have mentioned before that we live here. Live being the operative word. We live, love, cry, dance, sing, argue, work, play, struggle, study, shop, travel, pay bills and taxes, have friends and social lives, children, homes, pets. It's life with good days and bad days. Italy is not paradise and it isn't all "dolce vita" either. When we have something good to say we do, when we've had a bad day or a struggle with some bureacracy or a jobsworth in some official capacity we talk about that too. There are good threads about what we like here but you have chosen to ignore any good comments and just pick up on the bad ones.

If you don't like anything we have to say about our very real lives in Italy, then please do and go post in Singapore and leave us all alone. That would make us happy.

And highways in Michigan, Maryland, and Delaware, a cantilever truss bridge in NJ, whole counties in Arkansas, Kentucky, and Virginia, and a statue in DC not far from the White House. :o
