I cooked my first full meal from scratch and it was actually edible!
I've lived on instant noodles and frozen food for basically my whole adult life. Today I followed a recipe and made spaghetti with homemade sauce and garlic bread. It wasn't restaurant quality but nothing was burnt and I didn't poison myself. I'm genuinely proud. Next stop: learning to chop an onion without crying
A 40 year old woman from Italy, currently living in California, hopes to make new friends here
Hi everyone, I'm from beautiful Italy and have been living in California for a while now. Since moving here, I've loved California's sunshine, natural scenery, and diverse culture, but I've also found that making new friends and building a real social circle takes time.
I enjoy exploring new places, trying different cuisines, taking weekend walks on the beach, traveling, or chatting in a cozy café. I'm also very interested in different cultures and love listening to people share their stories and life experiences.
Since coming here, I hope to meet some genuine and friendly people and make new friends. Whether it's having coffee together, attending events, chatting about life, or sharing our interests, I look forward to meeting new people.
If you also enjoy conversation, travel, food, or simply want to meet a new friend from Italy, feel free to chat with me! 😊
