March 28, 2020 at 5:57 amThank you for sharing these words of happiness and hope. I love Italy and Italian people because they really know how to enjoy life. So the words I wish to share with you to brighten your day are DOLCE VITA–it is the Italian way of life. I see many people embracing it by singing on their balconies, even in these difficult times.

March 28, 2020 at 11:04 amGrazie grazie grazie! I didn’t go for the words with beauty because I knew them 😉 So I wrote the words that were new to me too. And they turned out to be so familiar!
