I have been here almost 4 years now and have only managed to find one English friend.. just wondering if there are anymore English people around the area??

I'm not English but an American who lives in Venice. There are quite a few Anglo expats here who I spend a lot of time with.

I am American (with an Italian husband) and we will be moving to Verona from Rome this summer. I was wondering the same thing. Also is there any English newspapers or other English resources in the region? I have googled but can't find anything.

I live down the street from you in Vittorio Veneto ;-)

I'm an American living in Montebelluna. Lived in the U.K. for 5 years too.

Sounds like time for a Veneto GTG, no?

hi i,m simon from liverpool england , i live in sirmione wich strictly speaking is brescia but i work in the verona area and used to live in treviso my son still lives there so i visit regularly would be nice to hear from people from verona/veneto area and i also think a veneto gtg could work

I'm English and currently living in London. I have a small flat in Venice and try and get over there as much as I can - although not as much as I would like. I've made friends with immediate neighbours, but would love to meet up with new people for coffee. It would be good to swap tips for good restaurants, shops etc in this wonderful city we find ourselves in. Feel free to email me at tracey_gittins@yahoo.co.uk.

My husband and I are relatively new (5 months) in Venice. We're American's waiting on our dual italian citizenship to be completed here, and would love to meet up with all expats in the area. We're definitely interested in a GTG anytime!

Hey there! I'm an American in Veneto too -- just north of Treviso...

What do you two do in Venice?

where in Venice do you live...there are others out there...

Belluno is in Veneto. We've been having a yearly around Christmas time dinner for all the English speakers in the area. Around 60 or so show up, the majority English.

I think it would be fun to try to organize something...is there snow in belluno @ christmas?
I forgot to say I am not English though I am an American...does that count:-)

Sometimes there is snow at Christmas in Belluno, but not last year. I can make an anouncement when it comes up.

Thanks JHelm I appreciate that....not sure where we will be or what at this time...but I love it as an option...
