Yesterday we received 7 e-mails with 40 documents in total
from our architect in Italy. Let say it is work in progress, and we are very
pleased with the work Galileo Menichini do for us at this stage.
The green grass in front of the house, make the feeling of spring to be very close.
We also got pictures from Claudia and Matteo, who look after
the house in Montecarlo. Pictures are from December and it looks like spring. Notice we have
snow and 15 degree minus in Moscow and look at the forecast for tomorrow in
Lucca that looks like to be plus 15 and sunny, you may understand we look
forward to stay there also in the winter time.
It was a large pile with documents that arrived. So no all
the effort of make paperwork ready for the local commune looks to be finished
and the same documentation for all the construction work too.
Schema for the water heated floors by solar is ready and
most other drawings that make us on schedule to receive our surprise with
regards to total cost of this project in March.
Just hope that the surprise is a pleasant one, and the challenge
with exchange rates on Euro and Norwegian Kroner not gives us a too hard fight.
Already seven years ago on the day tomorrow we looked into
the sky for a life in Italy. It gets closer and closer for each month that
goes.
On the drawing board today we have the four extra bedrooms,
our studio and the outdoor kitchen along with a huge garden. It is exciting to
see how it will go from drawing board step by step to a real home for us.
