Worker's holiday

In Italy today was the worker's holiday, so I was at home from the office. So this morning, I could met a new internet friend that come in Trieste from Holland. Cindy is a very lovely and kind person, she do quils and it's a fan of Tildas. I could see some of her works and them all are beautiful! I enjoyed met her and her daughter in Piazza Unità, where we had a coffe, cappuccino and "Caffelatte Grande". After an half hour we met also her Husband and friend. We promised each other to stay in contact and I hope to see her soon.

I spend the afternoon with my boyfriend at my parents garden, and we come home just for a shower and we are going out for dinner!
So I had a happy 1st of May!
