Thanks for adding me to your blogroll, make I ask that you make a change to my second name it’s Avventura.
PS. I tweeted this post for you! Good luck!
Hi, Oh it’s a good thing I didn’t add “proofreader” to my CV. Sorry about the spelling. Will fix right away. Thanks for sharing. Hugs. Toni
I’m a horrible proofreader … 😉
Hey Toni, well who knew? This is an impressive list my dear. But seriously, have you thought of launching a biz of your own? I’m talking $100 start up sort of thing…. With all this experience it’s got me thinking. But if you’d prefer a partner in crime, look no further! Bacioni!
I thought you’d never ask. Yes, we should partner together – with our combined energy and intention, we could conquer the world (or just our little part of it). XXOOOOOO. Toni
Yeah!!! In fact what were we waiting for???? Ci sentiamo presto!!! Bacioni. xx
Best resume I’ve seen in a long time.
Carol. ha! It’s the CV of a schizo, I think. Hugs. toni
Love it – you’re hired!:)
what are you hiring me FOR? LOL.
What about offering your services to Rosetta Stone, Berlitz, or a company here in Denver called Virtual Words, if any of your skills might relate to the promotion of their businesses ? Virtual Words has hdqrs both in Denver and Belgium by the way: “http://www.virtual-words.com/en/contact-virtual-words-translations-denver-co-usa/”

Great one Toni. Who knows?
Owwww youvè got the job . Will explain my absense in due course.
Brian….another mystery. will I be seeing you in November? details, details. t
Love your blog, how creative you are!! I, too would sell everything except my soul to live and work in Italy as a freelance writer. I am doing this now minus the adventure. What about Virtual Words? Sounds good. In Italy I would work all day for wine just for the views.
Hi Linda. Thanks for the kind words. It wasn’t always easy to be back and forth, when I was in Italy I didn’t want to come back to SF. And although I love this city, when I was in SF I was always thinking of being back in Orvieto. Sometimes you just have to do what you have to do….know what I mean? I feel so lucky that I was able to pull this off and I look forward to my “second half” of life in the bel paese. If you are a poet, there is no better place to be inspired than in Italy. Go for it. Keep in touch. toni
