Buon giorno
Good morning/afternoon/evening
My name is Giovanni, I'm 34 years old, and live in Italy. I am here with the intention of improving my English. I am not much of a writer but I think being a part of this community will greatly improve it. What else about me? I'm more or less in a relationship, I enjoy all kinds of things, and was at one point an associate professor of history, but am currently unemployed. I hope to get to know all of you better and look forward to reading and participating in this community.
Giovanni

Hi Giovanni. I also don't think your english needs much work & look forward to seeing what comes from you. Maybe some historical fiction or even non-fiction? We'll certainly help along the way.
Good to see you on & welcome!

i'm sure you'll enjoy the forum...

I was born, raised, and lived most of my life in Salerno, which is a bit south of Napoli. However, I recently moved to Ancona, which is quite a bit north of Rome, and on the east coast of Italy
