Hi
As this is our first Christmas in Italy and as we've made a few friends here in Soriano who have been extremely helpful and supportive of us non-Italian speaking Aussies we would like to give them a little Christmas gift to say thank you.
But we're not sure of the traditions and protocol surrounding gift giving at Christmas time.
Could anyone give us some advice on what type of gift would be appropriate and also is there a traditional gift to give to new friends?
How's everyone else's Christmas plans going? How are you all dealing with gifts for your families back home? Are any of you putting up Christmas trees and decorations in or around your homes?
Look forward to hearing from some of you soon.
Buon Natale!
