"Ciao mi chiamo Bonnie"
"Come?"
"Bonnie"
"Come?"
"Bonnie, con la B"
"Oh.... Bonnica – Bel nome..."
"Grazie..."
As the quest to settle in yet another European city begins, the warm welcome from San Secondo has not only buffered my cultural and physical transition into this new city, but has become the framework for creating the many positive experiences which continue to unfold moment by moment…
Thank you San Secondo for sharing your home and your lives with me.
Italy vs. New Zealand Problem Solving
Problem #1
My (parked) car has been sandwiched between two other cars. What should I do?
NZ solution
Go and find your toughest Maori cousins to come and help you lift your car out of the tight space. Problem “solved”.
Italian Solution
Just drive your car closely towards either of the neighboring cars until you hear a “clunk” hoping that one of them will roll slightly therefore creating more space for you to maneuver your way out. If the owner of the adjacent car you “clunked” should catch you nudging their machinna you can start yelling abuse at them for parking too close. If this person should respond in a similar manner, you can then start beeping your horn continuously to draw lots of attention to yourself and drown out any remarks you would prefer not to listen to. Problem “solved”.

La tua scar fatta da un gatto, col pretesto del trampolino dalla faccia. Se la tigre facesse uguale, ti imboccheremo dagli zigomi.
