Looking for other families to meet in Abruzzo

5 years ago

Hi lovely people,

We are a family from the UK (London/Hertford) who have just moved to Torre de Passeri, Abruzzo. We bought a property in February this year after renting in Atri for a few months.
We have five kids, eldest is 9, then 7yr old twins and 5 year old twins.
Other than ploughing through a course of Duolingo, none of us spoke any Italian before we moved here.
The kids tried the local school in March for about a month but found it very hard to settle in. The school did very little to help them. They were bored and felt isolated. Consequently the kids decided to home educate for a year and perhaps wait until they have a better command of the language before trying school again if they choose.
They are getting involved in the local sports groups but its still pretty lonely for them at this whole stage.

Anyway, we would love to hear from any other English speaking families in Abruzzo, It would be great to meet you and perhaps there's even a family out there with children around the same ages who would like to meet up.
