MOVING TO ITALY
The long Goodbye – heading to Bangkok
Well we are leaving for the airport in less than an hour and heading off on the first part of our journey to Italy.
So this is going to have to be brief. It’s been such an emotional week here in Melbourne with all the goodbyes.
It’s going to be ten days in Bangkok.
We have caught up with as many friends and family as possible and I know we missed seeing lots of you so know we send love and hope to see you one day in Italia or when we are next able to get back to Australia.
My Mum celebrates her 80th this year and I’d love to get back for it so that is my next goal – to start writing and see if I can get published.
I have to apologize my brain is totally fried right now and I can’t concentrate. We are at my Brother in laws and I am on his computer in the lounge with about ten people trying to get this written with kids wanting things and hubby wanting who knows what arrghhh.
So I am going to say ciao for now and I will post when ever it is possible, hope you don’t mind some posts from Bangkok.
Thank you so much for your support and interest in our adventures and we send love and celebrate dreams!!
and the gang x








Oh my, now I am confused, so please help me out. Where are you now, i.e. where have you made your new home? Italy or Bangkok?
I see also one of your daughters shares my name???? 🙂
We love both, Italy and Bangkok – having just returned from a whole month there and off again, hopefully later in the year for 2 months!! Dont know how to email you so, please excuse but accept our 2 blogs, anyone4curryandotherthings.com is my own (See Bangkok galore), my husband’s http://www.manningtreearchive.com (Italy and Bangkok galore) Good luck to all of you, I think you are very brave indeed. Ciao, Carina

How courageous you all are. Sending good energy as you move forward to the next stage in your adventure!
Thanks so much Heather, you really created magic with your poem and I am finding similar moments here in Bangkok x
Sorry Lisa, what I mean is that eventually you will “land” Italy. I know you are Bangkok bound now. Can’t wait to see some photos of you and your family in Bangkok.
We’ve been taking lots of photos in Bangkok so will share some, it is such a mysterious place and we see only the surface. I’d love to stay and really get to know this country and her people. x
Wow! This is soooooo exciting Lisa! You are off on your big adventure and will land in Italy.
Wow! Bon Voyage!
Can’t wait to get out in Italia and drink it all in, Bangkok is incredible and we just love it here as well. I still feel as if I am in a dream, sending love lisa x
