Today is my brother Vincenzo's birthday. Vincenzo vive in il Veneto, vicino di Verona. He's got a sweet situation- he lives in a house on the grounds of a farm. His landlord has adopted him and his family, and brings over fresh produce and eggs on a regular basis. Every Sunday, Vin, his wife, and their kids have dinner at the landlord's house. The kids get horse rides and generally live an idyllic life in one of the world's most charming countrysides. Not a bad gig, da vero?
Buon compleanno, fratellino!
It's sounds REALLY lovely! Lucky him. :)
ReplyDeleteBuon compleanno Vincenzo! Tutto il meglio! :)

OK, I'm jealous. How'd he manage that?
ReplyDeleteHappy B-Day, Vin!

Damn.
ReplyDeleteAnd here I feel lucky if at the end of the week my landlord hasn't forced his way in, maced me, had me arrested and started eviction proceedings...

ReplyDeleteI'm sure he's cuter than both of us.

ReplyDeleteYeah, it's a pretty sweet gig.

Uncle Sam done sent him there. He's been sent much worse places.
Happy B-Day, Vin!
That would have been easier for him to arrange when he was in American Samoa. Now, he'll put the orange twist in the Campari.

Yeah, it's a totally different culture here.

He has an enticingly large forehead.
