The Candidate

Sotto l'azzurro fitto del cielo
qualche uccello di mare se ne va;
né sosta mai: perché tutte le immagini
portano scritto:
"più in là".

Eugenio Montale

[ Under the thick blue sky
a sea bird departs;
it never stops: because every image
has in it written:
"go farther" ]

Love makes me want to see how much farther I can go, just for love. Love for my family, for my friends, for my country, for my community, love for You.

You are a pioneer. You left your country to pursue unknown opportunities to better yourself, to better your family. You build your dream, but you also remember your roots, your heritage, that way of life passed from parent to child for generations.

You are also an ambassador. You represent Italy not only to your neighbor and to your coworkers, but also to your children to whom you teach the Italian way of life.

You feel the pride of every Italian success. An Italian movie, an Italian style, an Italian invention, an Italian discovery, and of course, every Italian football victory. We also remember that it was an Italian who discovered the Americas.

I share this passion. I know the challenges and responsibilities of being an ambassador to our dear Italy. Please proceed to my biography to read more.
