Hello pumpkin,

it's been a while since I have written anything, the fact is that I don't have any interesting matters to share.  

Something is off, my enthusiasm too.

Anyway, life continues, as do the hopes for better times.

Typing hasn't been as boring as today was awful.

 

Hang in there Andre, you have a lot going for you and life will get better, I promise....ciao ciao

 

ciao pumpink

It is a while that I didn't write anything, the fact is I don't have matters interesting to share.
Something it is off, enthusiasm too.
Anyway life continue as the hope for better times;
Typing it wasn't been so boring a today, awful.

 

The best ways to learn to understand spoken English:

 

Yeah, I'm looking for the fastest and best ways to learn spoken English.  First of all, although I follow a certain number of series in English, in this case the original language, I still can't understand when words are pronounced too quickly.  Secondly, I have already read a lot of books in English (my favorite type is fantasy :D).  Maybe the real problem is that I live among Italians and, as I'm not used to hearing English people speaking, the fact that I watch American series is still not enough.  xD

 

Yeah, however, fortunately Giovanni you've come to the right place!  Find yourself a language partner or teacher and you will have the opportunity for real conversation at a speed you can deal with!

 

Ciao ciao, buona fortuna, al lupo, rock on, Tom

Opinion:

 

What you say is true:

It seems that in Italy tourism operators aim at targets on short notice (if you are a tourist they exploit you as much as possible, making you pay as much as possible), based on the fact that throughout the world Italy is considered a tourist destination to visit at least once.

Doing so, however, the average tourist comes to Italy only once to visit the cities for the most part, and if he wants to return to a seaside resort, he stays in a single room in Spain or Greece, because that way he saves in the long run.  And in the long run, the low cost policy rewards those who put it in place:  it takes a little far sightedness to aim at long-term goals.  If in Italy a double room costs 200 Euros per night and in Spain, all things being equal, 100 (for a single room) Italy only appears to have made a deal because, after having both experiences, the following year the cutomer will have been encouraged to return to Spain, not Italy.

That said, I think it's even more important to invest in our country.  Why should we support the national economy at all; tourism is a valuable investment.  We can not deny that many Italians go abroad, even outside Europe, by choice, or because it's really cool to say they were in Kenya in March. We should look carefully at the possibilities with a good quality/price ratio and try to exploit the many things we have, instead of taking for granted that foreign places are better in principle.

 

ciao ciao, buona fortuna Antonio!

If Italy in a double room costs 200 Euros per night and Spain , ceteris paribus , 100, only Italy has apparently made a deal , because after making both experiences the following year, the customer will be encouraged to return to Spain , not in Italy .
That said, I think it's even more important to invest in our country, why should support the national economy at all, and tourism is a valuable investment . We can not deny that many go abroad even to the outside world, for bias, or because it's really cool to say that they were in Kenya in the Marche.

Almost perfect, Carmine.  Some minor suggestions:

 

the last year of a specialist degree...

If I were to describe myself...  (More common)

and sometimes talkative person... (Less commas)

many people with this social network...or...through this social network...

 

cioa ciao, complimenti, buona fortuna, Tom

 

 

Social network profile

Hi,
I’m Tony, I’m 25 years old and I live in a small town near Caserta, Italy.
I’m primarily a student, I’m attending the last year of specialist degree in Mechanical Engineering at Federico II University in Naples but, at the same time, I have a part time job helping high school students with their math homework.
If I should describe myself I’d say I’m a sociable, reliable, kind and, sometimes, talkative person.
I hope to get to know many people by this social network.
See you soon

A seed should be protected.

Making a garden is a way for me to relax.  To touch the earth and to dirty the hands.  Sniffing its smell - it makes me feel a contact with nature.

The main miracle is, and will ever be, the seed's transformation; it gets wet and with warmth, grows; it opens itself and timidly breaks out.  That's life!

It is also true that without water it will die, and without help cutting the grass that surrounds it.  It is a weak thing that needs to be supported, to be caressed, to be cuddled; don't leave it alone...defend it from any insect attack!

Its shoot could begin to become a tree, a home to many, a shelter of shade.

...huge garden..

Saturday

today we met some friends, in order to have lunch at a nice restaurant just half an hour far from Trieste. It is a beautiful place with a nice view of the sea. There is a hudge garden as well, so our children could play in the backyard wihile the adults tasted a good bottle of wine

The Leanardo Da Vinci project is a fantastic but demanding experience. I suggest that you ask for help at work if there is something you can't do, and to ask again when you don't understand something. It's important to be honest, and to be willing to learn and to accept a new culture. :)

Is this short text correct?

 

My computer and organisational  skills would also benefit the activities of the association ( company, organisation).  I have worked for over a year as the web editor for a cultural association.  I wrote reviews of new album releases and acted as a liason with artists and event organizers.  I also conducted interviews and polls for association events.  In my work I learned to use Wordpress, SEO and Photoshop.  I am skilled at film shooting and editing with Windows Movie Maker.

 

I also have in-depth knowledge of MS Office and the internet.  I worked for six months at an online magazine, where I was a web editor in the socio-cultural section.  I have recently completed a three month internship in an ecommerce and marketing company in Berlin.

 

As for creative abilities, I love to write and draw.  Since I was young I have participated in many contests.    One of my short stories was published on a website and at secondary school I organised an exhibition of student artwork with my teacher.

 

Being an EVS volunteer would allow me to gain even more knowledge and experience, and to gain a foothold into the type of work I have always dreamed of: to connect creative activities with the respect for different cultures and the environment.  It would be very exciting for me to be involved in such a great lifelong learning project.  I also believe we can further this effort by concentrating our efforts on being active citizens of the EU.

 

With greater respect for nature and love of the arts, life will become a better place for all of us and for future generations.

 

I hope that you will consider me as the right candidate and I look forward to our future co-operation.

 

 

:).  Good luck!!!!
