"Hi! I'd like to improve my English, so any help will be appreciated. In return I can help you with your Italian, writing here or skyping. I'll only skype with female. I'm married and have got three children and a dog. I work in a hospital as nurse and like my job. I love travelling and struggle to get a fluent English, but it's so hard and I still have a long path to walk.

    I would like to share my today's experience. I was driving and almost entering into the crossing, since the traffic light was green, when I released that a fire track was arriving with their sirens on. I stopped before entering into the crossing, on the crosswalk, and let it pass. After that, also an ambulance passed. In the meantime, the traffic light became red and I could only wait for the next green, but I couldn't free the crosswalk because another car was just behind me. A man riding a bike passed and looked at me disapprovingly, and then a boy on a scooter made the same. So I thought (after getting upset) that we can't judge without knowing what happened, or before walking a mile in someone's shoes. And here it is another lesson: why to become upset? I couldn't explain them why I stopped on the crosswalk and we can't always get the acceptance of anybody, so why take it personally? Our peace of mind is priceless, we can't waste it.

    Pain is weakness leaving the body. I immediately liked this sentence as soon as I read it. Isn't it so true? During the first lock-down, I started to work out following some YouTube videos that I find really helpful and motivating. During the exercises, they also give you many pieces of advice concerning a healthy diet, useful habits and motivating sentences. Well, everyone needs them, isn't it true?

    An unreal Sunday Today I walked my dog. But maybe I'd better say my dog walked me. Yes, because of the SARS CoV 2, better known as coronavirus, people can go outside only for important things, for going to work if they can't work at home,for buying food (only food shops are open) and only few people can enter a shop at the same time, for giving care to old people and to walk your dog, but you have to stay near your house and far from other people. So, thank to my dog, I walked a little bit and looked around me. It was so strange the silent I heard. There were very few people, most of them with their dogs, they kept a big distance between one to each other. Usually on Sunday there are many people outside, many children playing in the park very near my home and you can hear the children's joy bursting in the air. Not in these days .Only spring doesn't know the new laws and act as every year does. You can admire the blooming of the flowers everywhere, also in my garden and it makes me regret I haven't buy new plants for gardening in my free time. Our habits have changed so much and I hope everything will soon return to the normality. Greetings from Italy.

    Are you only talking about a language exchange? Or in general? Because, when people ask how you are, they usually don't really expect you open your heart and answer, for most of people it's a quick way to say hello. People say they're fine, also if they aren't.  :)

    Prima durante dopo

    Ieri avrei voluto che oggi lei mi chiamasse.
    Ieri avrei voluto che oggi tu bussassi alla mia porta.
    Ieri avrei voluto che oggi tu vedessi mia mamma.
    Ieri avrei voluto che oggi loro mi regalassero dieci chili di nutella.

    Ieri avrei voluto che (ieri) lei fosse molto più tranquilla.
    Ieri avrei voluto che (ieri) voi mi lasciaste in pace.
    Ieri avrei voluto che (ieri) loro comprassero del cibo subito.
    Ieri avrei voluto che (ieri) tu parlassi più piano perché mi scoppiava la testa.

    Ieri avrei voluto che l'altro ieri non avessi comprato quel biglietto.
    Ieri avrei voluto che l'altro ieri loro non fossero andati via.
    Ieri avrei voluto che l'altro ieri tu non avessi rinunciato alla proposta.
    Ieri avrei voluto che l'altro ieri noi fossimo rimasti a casa.


    Ciao. Ottimo lavoro. Tutto corretto. Eviterei solo di ripetere 'ieri" nelle frasi centrali perché sono superflui e rendono la frase pesante, poco scorrevole.

    The sandwich generation I recently skyped with an American friend of mine. We discussed about the sandwich generation. Well, I don't know if it makes sense to you. The sandwich generation is mine. In fact I am between an elder one, my mother who lives with me and whom I care about, and a younger one, my children who give me a lot of hard work and worries, although they are growing up or maybe just for that. I haven't ever heard about this way to call it but it really works, in my opinion.
