Why I love Bologna in autumn

We are back in Italy! As soon as I set my foot on the airport of Bologna, I realized how much I missed this town! We traveled with Pegasus airlines, and I must give my compliments on their service despite they are a low cost air company. They were very friendly and very helpful, and they managed to guarantee me a comfortable flight as it could be, since I had to travel with my foot in a cast.

Friends space


A couple of days ago, I received an email (one of the ways of communication with my long distance friends) from my friend Hara, who was sharing her thoughts with Maria regarding the fact that by simply adding certain foods into our diet, we could have a huge impact on the quality of our hair, nails and skin. They concluded that no product in the market can make us as beautiful on the outside as feeding us inside with the right food. Here is what they found on the web:

My beautiful long distance friends

Good morning again from the hospital ! I did a third operation because the fibula was completely out so doctors considered they should fix it.. My leg adventure made me realised for once more how many people i love, love me back!and how awesome and important those folks are !
Life is full of unusual twists , and mine the last years is based on long distance relationships.. after a 3 years long distance relationship with Jony(i promise i will post about it in the future), i had to suffer from homesickness and long distance friendships and now that my husband moved to Germany i have to go through all over again, with him and my friends in Italy..

I can't give you 5 magical ways to keep in touch with your friends that live far away..but i can share my experiences; each friendship is special and has its dynamics and to my opinion, we shall not try so much to make them work..real friends forgive and accept you with your flaws so even after a long period without contact you shall be able to pickup where you left off- if not, no means of communication can make wonders for your relationship. 
After i relocated  in Italy i did have some fears considering me drifting away from my friends and loose contact but being away doesn't mean you can't stay close! the most essential ingredient is mutual care and love, and the good will to stay in touch!I am officially the worst at calling people regularly but i do spontaneously pick up the phone or text to report big or little things from my life every now and then, and that , i believe, keeps my friendships flourishing..and technology fortunately eases it. Here are my fav apps:
