good luke with the lottery, I have met people who won it, and when to NY
Yes, french native speaking and raining as much as it does in Germany and for a biker like me (on racetrack for fun), it's not something I like.
Phoenix has a small and great racetrack

For the lottery, I don't believe too much in it.. so the best thing will be to find a job first or take the risk to go there first..

Unhappy it can't be that easy to just move here...

Hey Elisa,

not to shatter your dreams, but you can't just move here without a work permit, relatives as sponsors or such... as far as I know you need an employer to sponsor you and they can only do that if they can prove that no American can fill that job... and please do not immigrate illegally, we have enough of that in Arizona already!

The Germans are much colder that the Italians, the guys are so and so...
but you will learn so much of our life stile, much different. we enjoy coffee and cake and we can set at the bar for hours...
German friends are forever, when ever you make one it will be that way!
what do the Europeans love about the states??? we think in USA everything is possible. Dreams can come true....you guys have many opportunity that we do not have in here. oh I have so much to say. we have no intention to pay for a house for ever, better Small house car or ..but go out and have fun! you see old people acting like they are 15...
Let me thik of some other thigs to tell you
take care for now
Wow! I can't believe you are from Venezia! My host family has a second home there and we are going to visit over school vacation this fall. What would you say are the "must see" places in the city? Where is your favorite place? I can't wait to try authentic Italian food! Tiramisu is my favorite dessert and I am sure it is way better in Italy than it is here! Germany will be an interesting place for me. I am relatively reserved, but can get along with anyone, so I think that I will probably do well if I don't get discouraged when people are slow to open up. I thought about going to Italy too. I'd take wine over beer any day, but then I'd probably take coffee over wine. Is Ryanair the only one or are there others?
Of course I think that living in America is wonderful, but since I have never known anything else I guess I probably don't appreciate it in many ways that I should. While I am abroad, I hope I will learn more about how the US is differs from other places. Bis bald!

Elisa,
Di dove? Italiana oder Deutsche?

I've moved back and forth between Arizona, New Mexico, and several countries in Europe (including Germany and Italy) for the past 18 years. I'm happy to share my thoughts on many aspects but it would help to know more about what you are looking for.

Warm/hot weather? Do you still want four seasons, just less rain?

Relaxed atmosphere?

City? country? small town with easy access to big town?

What do you prefer to do with your free time?

Are you an indoor or outdoor type of person?

What kind of places do you most like to visit on vacation?

What kind of people do you want to be around?

How important is it for you to have a few Germans/Italians nearby?

What kinds of food do you want to have available?

A presto/bis bald

Default Hmm

Hi, I am German and I just moved here. Es ist soooo anders hier. Es ist nicht sehr sauber, dadurch dass es hier so heiss ist, stinkt es hier. Niemand macht jemals Fenster auf, weil es so heiss ist und es ein Vermoegen an Elektrizitaet kostet die Bude wieder kalt zu kriegen. Ueberleg es dir gut, komm und sieh es dir erstmal an. Achso, und die Jobs zahlen hier nicht sehr gut..
