…dammit. Why’s it gotta do that.
…Well, I guess that’s why in this blog I call myself “a tanguera between 2 lands”…
P.S. I know some Italians who will complain about the Laura Pausini song in this video, but you need to understand that “Tra Te E Il Mare” is so totally the Italy expat-to-be theme song. (Come on Italy expats, agree with me! You know it’s true). ![]()

oh, I know the feeling…only 1 more week until I get a taste again (albeit quick)!
Well, anyone who’s been there would understand that call. And you are in that privileged position of being able to jump between those two wonderful places that you love so much…
Yup. Yup. Yup!
“Non posso più dividermi tra te e il mare,
Non posso più sentirmi stanca d’aspettare…”
Some longer established, near native expats will give a good eye-roll accompanied by an obnoxiously snobby statement of how cheezy it is, but to the soon-to-be Xpats it’s oh so true!!!…
oh yes, the perfect song!
“Cerco di notte in ogni stella un tuo riflesso
ma tutto questo a me non basta adesso cresco”
So, when are you coming?
When the rhythm comes and gets you, there’s really no resisting it.
OK, I was all snarky until I played the song, and now I’m all weepy and princess-in-the-tower. Why’s it gotta do that, indeed.
This is definitely a great song by Laura. Italy has produced some fine artists in the field of music. I found some great info on Italian songs at italiansongs.org
