Claudio Baglioni (Rome - 10 May 1951) is a pop singer, song-writer and composer whoÌýmade the big-time withÌýQuesto piccolo grande amore.ÌýI guess that every loving couple in Italy has dedicated this love song to his/her lover!

Great, another article about Abruzzo, glad to see that other non-specialist magazines highlight Italy in their travel stories...You should like this one to:Have you already visited the places featured in there?And what about this one?It's dedicated to Santo Stefano di Sessanio, which is partially mentioned in the Times's article.Happy reading, Abruzzo Lovers

Hi Karylvery happy you joined the community.Many lovers of Italy are considering to move to Italy, so I'm pretty sure many members will help you reporting their own experience.Personally, I lived in France for almost an year. It has been easier for me since I already knew where to live and what to do there. Thanks to my job I soon created a little community of friends (½ûÂþÌìÌÃs couldn't go anywhere without Friends). So the distance from home was less painful. The only thing I suddenly noticed was the difference of people behavior (½ûÂþÌìÌÃs are well known to be one of the warmest population in Europe)Ìýand of food attitudes (I couldn't spent a day without pasta!, but luckily I had enough time to buy my favourite products to the supermarket and cook them at home).I really liked the french lifestyle. And after some months I appreciated anything that place had to offer. In the end I can say it has been a great experience.My only advice is to beÌýopen to a different culture, food and lifestyle.Hope that the magazine and the community could give you more support and feedback about how thinks works in Italy.ÌýThe News stories () keep you updated with what's going on in Italy, while the Feature stories () describe places, food, property and other aspects of life in Italy.Best wishes for your future decision, please keep us updated!Valentina

ÌýYes, I think you all are right,RICORDO has to be interpreted as "memory"Obviously the meaning is related to what is pictured in that photo, but it is clear that he wants to leave us a memory of something happened that time.Ìý

I think that listening to locals and trying to speak with them - careless about the pronunciation or the grammar - is of course the best way to practice your ½ûÂþÌìÌà and to learn new aspects of the language, that are not written in the books.Anyway, if you have no chance to speak with locals, have a look, pardon, listen to this podcasts, there are both English and ½ûÂþÌìÌà versions of the text and you can hear the ½ûÂþÌìÌà version while reading the ½ûÂþÌìÌà translation, you canÌýstop and re-listen as many times as you need. Plus, you can observe how to translate some expressions from English to ½ûÂþÌìÌÃ,they are located here:Hope this helps a little...
