comedy in dialect
Yesterday’s performance by Montalto artists (I think they are amateurs but I might be wrong) gathered a lot of people, when I arrived all the seats were taken. Strangely enough all roles were played by women. I didn’t understand much, the only thing that attracted my attention was an old man (played by a young woman) who always wanted to get a massage from his wife. Just as my husband.

[…] Carpasio: comic performance (in the ligurian dialect) by Montalto actors “Vegliu sci, ma scemu na”, the same as in Triora a month ago […]

Hi Nadya,
I tried a large J for Judy and here I am! Well, I am so cold that I am going to go to bed and turn on the electric blanket for a bit before I write more!
Great to see you and B. last night!

Hello, I am Judy Sale, an artist and property restorer living here in Triora as well. My friend, Nadya, a Russian lady living here now too, kindly asked me if I would like to write something on her blog. Being somewhat more ’senior’ than Nadya, I didn’t really know how to do this - and still don’t - but I thought it was a fun idea to write something about my life here in Triora.
It is a lovely medieval village as Nadya has already said, but it is unique in that it attracts only unique people. If you are not unique and prefer packaged tours, cruises, and all things measured and evaluated before you encounter a country, read no further.
On the other hand, if you have lived a full and individual life that you carved out for yourself, you might be intrigued to know more about this lovely secret place that scares off the mundane and welcomes those who actually have something to contibute - who welcome change rather than cringe at the mere thought.
Oh dear, I sound radical already and I am not! I just like to explore new places ‘my way’ and get know interesting ‘non packaged’ people. I also have some beautiful properties for sale here in Triora that are or will be finished to the same (or better) standard as the ‘packaged’ require. After all, I don’t think you have to live in a hut and wear ‘Jesus shoes’ to be different. My properties offer the same creature comforts as those in the ‘rat race’, I just don’t have to listen to ‘rat race’ peope problems because I have friends here who have had the guts to opt out of that.
I think that is enough (basta! - in Italian!) for one night. Let’s see what poor Nadya thinks about my submission so far - after all, it is her blog!!
