At the end: what am I doing in Thailand? My high school classmate and best man - Paul Zelati - says that if I followed his advice to leave for Cuba, I would not have made to impregnate a Thai, reason, In his opinion, I live in Phuket. This gag the "Friends" is the mother of many other, for example one in which I presented to friends unknown to me as "the one who has got pregnant by a Thai". But I must admit that, This gag, some truth have it well. During our talks, those that keep you up late into the night, we analyzed at least four reasons that Paul himself would define: bla bla.
The first: while I was in Italy, Alee often called me, and during every phone call I breathed the sun of that country that melts in the heat 365 days a year. I went back to Phuket during the following summer, Alee wanted to see again. Since, for four years I've been commuting back and forth to Thailand, and in Cuba there have never been. The year after we applied for a tourist visa to Italy, so that my family could know Alee Alee and my beautiful country. After repeated requests for documentation, talks about talks, up to the claim that is not normal with short hair – "But you are all convinced that people want to come to Italy to shoot the bombs?"He asked and hit, knowing, amused by the rigmarole - the Italian embassy rejects visa. I went to Thailand for the summer holidays, and I came back pregnant, second motivation, the only plausible that Paul seems to feel.
The third is just around the corner: We had to get married - in Thailand for obvious reasons! - And do all of the documents to protect our son or daughter who was to have dual nationality. From Italy I booked appointments at the embassy in Bangkok and, in "five months played", sono partita col mio fratellone e Paolo naturalemente, could not miss the wedding of the year.
My daughter's name is Lanna (pronounce Lanna, Thai name meaning precious), was born on April 2 of duemilatredici and Alee was in Italy six months. With the whole family - fourth motivation - from November 2013 I live in Thailand, a Phuket.
Compared to many stories of people who have left the country of origin, I never dreamed tropical countries, I have not had prolonged experiences of life abroad – I was never interested in any of this – and I never wanted a change of this magnitude. Paul knows well: I never thought of getting married and having kids.
From my first trip to Thailand a lot has happened, and I lived them to the bottom of my many questions: love for Alee, pregnancy, marriage and finally the birth of Lanna. Simply, things happen in a very precise time. I think for any person at some point come the time to choose, and it's all here. I left because it was time: even though I still had many things to do, even if I was not ready and I was afraid. It was time to go, not because I went, not because it was the time good, not because my life was all in place and in working order. This never happens. The simple truth, despite all that we can tell, It is that when it's time it's time and you must go. So I did.
Finally, I must admit that the most important time, that has marked changes and decisions, It was the conception of Lanna ... but I also under torture will advance my motivation blah blah blah.
