Sono riuscita a recuperare delle vecchie e consunte foto, che mia madre aveva conservato con molta cura in una scatola. Chissa' quante però, si sono perse, durante i vari traslochi e trasferimenti da un paese all'altro del mondo, dove i miei genitori hanno vissuto prima di stabilirsi definitivamente in Italia nel 1968 ...
In this, a bit unusual page, I wanted to collect some pieces of my past.
A simple tribute to those who preceded me!
I succeeded in recovering some old and worn pictures, which my mother kept very carefully in a boxe. I wonder how many other has been lost during the removals when my parents moved from a country to another where they lived before they finally settled in Italy in 1968 ...
