Day 1
I am sat in a garden in Italy drinking fresh coffee in the warm sun.
The first mistake I made was to not pack any clothes for wet weather. The rain started in the night and continued into the morning. The blessing, however, is that the air is still warm and so there is no need for a jumper.
I have fitted right in here; the family are lovely and Aurora already calls for me and is happy to have me play with her. She even asked for me to go to the bathroom with her whilst she had a poo.
'One of the joys of parenting,' Greta said.
A lot of the language is quite similar to French, I find, and so it is quite easy to pick up some phrases. 'Cacca' means 'poo', as it is in French, so I knew that one straight away!
Greta is off work at the moment, so it is nice that we get to spend some time together with Aurora before I am with her on my own.
I'm a bit nervous about driving and picking her up from nursery, which I think I'll be doing next week! It will be nice to establish a routine though, and then I will be able to explore on my days off.
