How to  rent office milan if you are located in the other country?

We're an international group of (mostly amateur) artists and we'll have our artists retreat in an isolated house in the mountains of Tuscany. Photographers, painters, writers, muses... open for all disciplines. June 1st till June 8. Close to Lucca. We'll be working by ourselves if we want but will be having some cooperation, crossovers and mutual inspiration as well. We'll be cooking and eating etc. together. As we simply share the costs, it is very affordable. There are still some places open, so please send me a message if you are interested! Web site for more info here.

I am an Italian citizen, but I do not speak the language. I will be moving to the region in the coming year and wish to communicate with someone familiar with services for the blind.

In the early 20th century countless individuals from Valle San Giovanni (locally referred to as "Valle") left Italy in search of a brighter future for themselves and their families. Those left behind have never forgotten their fellow countrymen who decided through necessity or choice to leave Abruzzo. Over the years, many of these emigrants have had the opportunity to return and find members of their families who never left Italy, to visit places of their childhood, or just to see for the first time the location where their parents, grandparents and other relatives once lived. The nonprofit Discover Your Roots project was initiated to facilitate this reunification process and to honor the memory of Abruzzo's brave émigrés. During the first two weeks of July 2012 those who departed Valle San Giovanni for faraway lands, as well as their descendants and families, are encouraged to return to Abruzzo for a series of festivities and entertainment. To make this happen 20 newly restored private apartments in Valle are being made available for a nominal fee.For more information contact: ulissi@hotmail.com

I just wanted to wish the English team the best of luck for this afternoon's clash with Slovenia!

If you know anyone who owns a property close to Porto Cervo please email me directly. We are looking from July onwards. Thank you.

F.E.S.T.A. Theatre Company, which recently presented to packed houses The Velveteen Rabbit at the Pergola Theatre in Florence, with a surprise appearance by renowned actor John Malkovich (January 2010) and Macbeth at the Bargello Museum (July 2009), is announcing auditions for Dracula at the BARGELLO MUSEUM in Florence, Italy, June and July 2010. We are currently seeking actors from around the world for this international production. You will have the opportunity to work with colleagues from the United States, Great Britain and other countries, as well as with local Italian artists, and to perform this classic in its native language. Sword and stage combat training will be a part of the rehearsal process with a world-renowned Fight Master and Choreographer. Monetary compensation is dependent on experience and need. Some housing and financial assistance may be available for actors not living in Florence. Rehearsals start around the 19th of May, 2010. The show will run the last week of June and the first two weeks of July (with the possibility of a tour afterwards). Dracula will be performed entirely in the English language (with subtitles in Italian for the audience) so a solid knowledge of English is absolutely necessary. FESTA is seeking trained and talented actors. Auditions will take place on Jan. 30 from 10:00 am - 1 pm in central Florence. Auditions will consist of performing a 1 to 2 minute classical monologue. Please come prepared. For an audition time, please write to Suzanne at suzanne@festatheatre.com or call 347/9397010 347/9397010. For information on FESTA and its past shows, go to www.festatheatre.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ La compagnia teatrale FESTA che recentamente ha presentato Il Coniglietto di Velluto al Teatro della Pergola di Firenze (Gennaio 2010) e Macbeth al Museo Nazionale del Bargello (Luglio 2009) annuncia audizioni per lo spettacolo Dracula che andra' in scena al Museo del Bargello a Firenze, Giugno e Luglio 2010. FESTA cerca attori da dappertutto il mondo per questo spettacolo internazionale. Avrete l'opportunita' di recitare con attori dagli Stati Uniti, Inghilterra, altri paesi, oltre a attori di Firenze, e di poter recitare Dracula nella sua lingua originale. Formazione nelle tecniche di duelli e combattimenti a fil di spada (cosa piuttosto rara nel panorama teatrale italiano) fara' parte delle prove con un noto maestro d'arme. Compensazione monetaria e' dipendente sull'esperienza del attore e sul bisogno. Per attori che non vivono a Firenze, c'e' la possibilita' di assistenza nell'alloggio. Le prove cominciano verso il 19 Maggio, 2010. Lo spettacolo andra' in scena l'ultima settimana di Giugno e le prime 2 settimane di Luglio (con la possibilita' di un tournée dopo). Dracula sará recitato completamente in lingua inglese (con sottotitoli in italiano per il pubblico) quindi e' assolutamente necessario parlare e capire bene inglese. FESTA cerca attori con tanta esperienza teatrale. Le audizioni saranno il 30 Gennaio dalle 10:00 - 13:00 nel centro di Firenze. Le audizioni consistono di recitare un monologo classico che dura 1-2 minuti. Vi preghiamo di venire preparati, con il testo gia memorizzato. Per un audizione, vi preghiamo di contattare Suzanne a suzanne@festatheatre.com oppure di chiamarla a 347/9397010 347/9397010.

I shall be walking from my current home in the French Pyrenees, to the house where I was born, in Blackpool, Lancashire. I plan to take 70 days for the walk and to arrive 70 years, to the day, after I was born. I will be walking an average of 30 kms a day, 6 days a week, for 10 weeks. If anybody wants to follow my planning, preparations, training, and eventually the walk itself (starts on May 15th 2010) my blog address is:http://www.vicsbigwalk.blogspot.com">www.vicsbigwalk.blogspot.comAny helpful suggestions will be gratefully received.Vic Heaney

We need to get from Paris to Venice between 30 July and 2 August. We were wondering if anyone needs a car relocated, or if anyone can suggest companies that deal in rental car relocations.
