it is amazing how humans are getting used to the surroundings. the first colder day in oktober made me shiver so much , yesterday i was sitting outside on the bench with my dear Jon and we 
had a picnic with a 100% vegetarian german leek/pepper quiche and tea, the sun was out and made it up to 4 degree C. and i was so thrilled about spring to come- especially after this week of very icy temperatures down to -30C. our little stove was glowing and kept us and the house warm. the snow is now melting and i watch the temperature in gualdo - it is never down to real cold, just around freezing and over 10 in the day.

another quote:"A study last year estimated that 2.2 pounds of beef is responsible for the equivalent amount of carbon dioxide emitted by the average European car every 155 miles, and burns enough energy to light a 100-watt bulb for nearly 20 days."
nothing new on the moving front - except - our realtor had wrong informations about the contract signing on his website, it said we do not have to come to italia to sign, now this is a min. 2000$ spend or not on an extra flight before easter. we try not to go - even we would LOVE to be there in early spring.......naja werden sehen.
