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.

goodbye

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!!

    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

Ciao I’m Lisa

Together with my husband Sam we’ve renovated multiple homes in Australia and now on our second in Italy. This time it’s a medieval hamlet at the foot of the Alps in Piemonte. I love the simple life, photography and working from home with my cat on my lap.  Our mission? To help you create your Italian dream life!
