I am in the application process for citizenship to Italy, and am looking for friendships to help me practice and learn Italian prior to my visiting, and possibly moving there. I have been happily married for the last quarter century and have three grown sons and one granddaughter who will be 2 this September. I love camping, hiking, swimming, and reading in my spare time; I hope to spend a significant amount of time traveling and discovering new beautiful places across the globe in the next couple decades.
