(an "Italian" fluffy cloud)Thanks for all your messages on my previous post. Fortunately no new shakes have been felt so we all hope it was just a one off scare.
I'm now back in York since a couple of days and the weather has been beautiful so this makes my return to daily life a bit easier. Although when I go to Italy after a while I feel "abroad" at first, I quickly get used to the lifestyle there and then I find it harder to leave.

(an "angry cloud": is storm coming?)
I had two lovely weeks in my home town, although I ate too much, drank too many cocktails and slept too little! It was fantastic to catch up with my friends. It is so different from here. Although I like Britain, I do not feel I’ve managed to forge really deep friendships with people here. I think it’s mainly because I keep on comparing these relatively “new” friends here to my “old” Italian friends who I’ve known all my life.
I will get back on track soon but for the moment I miss Italy ever so much! And these dark clouds don’t make it look less appealing.

(the storm is here but will be over soon. See that blue sky over there?)

It must be difficult to lead two lives but I suppose it makes each place feel fresh when you leave and return.
ty so much for the post card from your home town. i loved it, so nice of you to think of me. {{}}
glad you are back safe, & that you had a wonderful time.
yep. there's no place like home, right?
praying for all those in need.
huggies...
Cool photos! I like clouds! :)
I like living in the UK too, but I admit life in Italy is... well, different... in a better way. ;)
I am glad you had fun, do you have a bunch of pics to share with us all? :D
Big hugs and talk to you tomorrow.
I think no matter where your home, or where you go, it's often hard to get back into the routine. I love our place, and I'm always happy to be home, but it's so much fun to travel and experiences new sights and places...or in your case, familiar ones!
Hugs, Beth
Welcome back, Antonella. Sorry to hear of the quake down your home's way, but it was a relatively minor one fortunately. Your concern is understandable, hope all are well.
Welcome back. While you were back in your home town I was in your adopted home. Well nearby. I had a few hours in York but explored the moors. Wonderful. Wandered around the coast. Parts ok. Are you happy to be back in your new home? It is interesting for us who have adopted a new place and see it differently from those who grew up in it. Don't you think?
I was in York too, for Easter weekend.
I know what you mean - when I moved to Glasgow it took me ages to feel like it was home. I loved the city, straight away, but it took longer to get to know people. I reckon it's old age, rather than the place - well, it is in my case anyway (creak!) ;)
