Wanted: English speaking Friends

14 years ago

I have been here since 2007 and have not a friend in Italy. I live with my partner and two children and it has not been easy.

I find that most Italians tend to want to compare me to other Americans they may have met or expect me to be to be a carbon copy stereotype of every bad movie they've seen on Skyitalia.

The experience has been life changing. When I arrived, I was a progressive. Now, I am becoming extremely conservative because of some of the things that I see.

I grew up on Long Island, am a convert Jew, now turned atheist. I am mixed race and a college graduate. I love singing Jazz, am somewhat bohemian and an artist. Currently, I live in Livorno. If there is anyone into decorating, coffee, or chit chat, contact me.
