met someone in Cuba from Catania, Sicily and he wants to come to Canada to see me. I would rather meet him somewhere sunny as there won’t be much to do in Saskatchewan, Canada…especially since neither of us speak each others language well. Canadian have three very popular choices for sunny vacations…Cuba, Mexico and Dominican Republic. The prices for each are simular. Is it more common and/or less expensive for those from Italy to travel to one of those destinations from Rome? Or would it be cheaper for him to come to Canada? I don’t want to burden him with expenses and would like to make the most of our time and $$.
He isn’t much of a texter and is very laid back so I am having trouble trying to decide something with him….oh and that whole language barrier thing too doesn’t help…ha ha.
Thanks for your help
This is a letter to a good friend in South America. She is a female, and we use the informal tense in Italian, and would do the same in Spanish.
Thanks a lot for your help!
“I hope everything is good for you, and you are not too busy! I do nothing but study all week. University has so much freedom, it’s a shame I can’t experience it because I always have my nose in a book! In general, I am very well and I am getting ready for Christmas break. Erica is studying Italian, and has a very good accent. It will be strange but wonderful to be in Sicily again, but I don’t think it will be the same without you. My contact with Lisa has been limited, as we both have busy lives and are growing apart. I hope that we can keep in touch though, because I valued your friendship. I think soon we should begin to plan when we will travel. Will you come to New York? It would be a dream for me. I hope to come to Bolivia during the Easter vacation. After Christmas we will talk seriously about these things. Now of course I know that you are occupied with Mauro’s impending visit, and I must plan my trip in Italy. How is your family? I hope they are well. My father is marrying his girlfriend, Lillian. They announced this a few days ago. I am happy, but it will be a change. Everything changes, with time. I’m sure it is the same way in Bolivia J.
As always, I miss you and can’t wait to hug you again.
Your American friend who loves you,
A”
Seven rooms & one Suite of subtle luxury in the middle of a unique 120 ha property could be your very home sweet home for a unique honeymoon, an unforgettable holiday with friends or family or just be the straightest way to get away from the crazy rush and relax in another dimension of time & energy. Settled on the flanks of an extinct volcano, the many terraces and the Belvedere offer some except…
I hold an Indian passport (with ILR) and i am married to a British citizen…we have booked a holiday to Sicily in Italy. we have applied for a tourist visa for myself and paid £76 at the visa offce..as visa fee incl of service charge etc. but the guy at the visa office did not collect all the documents i took with me like bank statements and travel /stay confirmation so i was a bit confused….i have come home and looked on the website again and seen that a spouse of EU citizen does not require a visa!? Is this true? if it is why did the guy at the office not tell me? my husband was with me when i attended the appointment..i want to know- Does the spouse of an EU citizen who has indefinite leave to remain in the UK require a tourist visa for italy?
From Barcelona, Spain, and traveling with a dog, what types of transportation modes are available, and would anyone kindly recommend one mode over the over, and explain why.
I love taking trains, but if a local European thinks its wiser to travel with the dog by plane or boat or bus, this is the issue.
I’ve had to go through all kinds of hoops to get the dog ready for Spain, which is why I may not have time to change plans and make a direct flight to Italy. Traveling will be tough for me especially with the dog. So I really could use some opinions. Is there a boat direct to Sicily is where I need to end the journey. I imagine I’d need a health certificate in Italian if I flew in, but is one needed if I take a boat … if there is a boat …or the train? Bus, etc. Thanks so much if you can help .
Hey everyone, I am going to backpack in italy for one month. I am 20 and will be traveling alone, staying in hostels.
I will travel by train, north to south. Flying in the north (milan or venice) and leaving from Rome.
Main goals are photography, culture/language, meeting people and cuisine.
My main destinations are Venice, Florence and Rome.
I don’t want to be a “see it all tourist”, but I definitely want to stop in a few places in between.
Where should I go? What is worth the travel time and money?
How easy is it to get down south and what should I see?
Is it realistic to make it to Sicily at all?
Thank you!
