Great job as always, Simone. Welcome back!

Hello, Simone. I thought your writing was really good and you have great fluency. An aspect where there is room for improvement in the use of idioms and phrasal verbs, so you can be a bit less formal to express yourself. This is common issue in learners at your level. We can look at this more closely, using the paper you wrote. Best Paul

    Etihad complaint We are a family composed of Mr Piretto Giovanni Giuseppe, Mrs Monti Carla Maria, Ms Piretto Elena and Ms Piretto Elisa. We have bought four return tickets from Milan Malpensa to Kathmandu (outbound flights number EY2871, EY290; inbound flight numbers EY293 , EY81) . Here it is the code of our booking: BQZTIA. Given the disaster happened in these days in Nepal, given the humanitarian difficulty of the country, given the lack of potable water, communications and roads open to vehicles, our trip has been suspended and put off by local agency (our local guide supposes it will take at least several months for a touristic recovery). Farnesina ( Italian governmental authority for foreing affairs) warns us off not to go to Nepal until the emergency is over. If we did it, we would imperil ourselves. Until yesterday Kathmandu airport was close because of other and bad earthquaks that make the situation more and more complicated (in Kathmandu there are not even open hotels!). We have called your custumer service in Milan, being confident of the fact that the cancellation of our trip can not be reported to our will. We have been informed by a clerk that our booking will be still available for one year and we will be able to buy other tickets for the same destination BUT we have to pay 150 Euros penalty per person. We would ask you not pay this penalty because the cancellation is not due to our will and in case this is not possible, we ask you to reduce it to a symbolic amount. We bought all the flights from your company thinking you were professional and reliable (in every aspect). We wait for an answer. Best Regards

    First English Review on Tripadvisor.Please, correct!

    This is my first hotel review in English on Tripadvisor.
    Could anyone tell me if there is anything wrong? Thanks!

    Here it is:

    "We spent 4 nights at Tatra 4 Studios and our stay was absolutely awesome.
    The apartment is completely restored and even not too small although we had chosen the beige (the smallest) apartment.
    The location is close to the main attractions of the city and it is only 5 minutes walking to the parliament.
    Let me tell you something about Laszlo, the owner.
    He was always ready to answer so quickly everytime we wrote him to ask advice or information. Thanks also to Tinde who gave us such a helpfull suggestions about local (and cheap too) restaurants.
    I can't help recommending this accomodation!".

    How do you judge it?

    Prejudices about the Italians When I go abroad I get really angry listening about so many prejudices (some of them are nonsense) about the Italians. Someone could tell me that in prejudice there is a bottom of thuth (at least that is what we say in Italy), but sometimes against the Italian there is a real malice. Yes, It's true we are noisy when we are sitting for meals, yes, we are unorganized and many people don't respect the rules...but I wonder...who wasn't, at least one time, noisy during one lunch or dinner? Could anyone tell that in his country everybody respects the rules? I don't think so. I fed up with this situation and I've wanted to bring my testimony.

    New work Two week ago I started my new work! I must admitt that I'm happy and maybe too exited because every new work includes new challenges, new responsabilities and overall new stress like meeting new collegues, learning new things etc. At the moment I fell like a tightrope, if I make only a mistake I could be thrown from the window (as the Italians say). I hope it doesn't happen!

    La mia Londra

    Mi piace stare a Londra, soprattutto d'estate; è rilassante  andare in un parco con una bevanda fredda o passeggiare lungo il fiume.... perfetto!
