My Italian must have deteriorated enormously.

Greetings from Naples and surroundings

If it can't be amazeballs, may your Christmas be at least bearable, my friends!

Thank you to all the healthcare workers , shop workers , delivery drivers, transport workers, emergency workers and everyone in the service industry who are working so hard over this holiday period.

Proud moment: I was at the Swedish Church Xmas fair, asked for something and my pronounce must have been good enough, because the lady at the stall REPLIED TO ME IN SWEDISH. I DID understand what she meant, but carried on in English - didn't want to spoil the moment with an epic fail 😂

It is indeed very sad, even less space and attention to new, interesting acts in favour of 'safe', already mainstream ones who certainly do not require the same amount of help.
