5 Movies based on true stories

Dear friends,

How are you doing? I hope you and your families are fine. We are living a difficult period. We are not used to these kind of emergencies, but sooner or later it will pass ( I hope sooner).

So, today I will write about movies. How many of you like to watch a good movie in the weekend? Or maybe you prefer watching one before going to bed?

Well, I have a complicated relationship with movies.  Don't get this wrong, I love them!  However, I seldom watch a movie because the only time when I could actually watch something in silence is after 10 pm.  So  I am either busy reading or I just fall asleep and don't need anything 😁. But if I decide to watch a movie, then I will most likely choose one based on a true story. (When I was younger I could see"chick flicks" the entire day 😊).  I just don't have time and patience for bad  movies anymore.  🎬

Here is a  list of some films which are based on a real story. I hope you like them as much as I did. Please feel free to write me about your favorite movies!

 1.   Just mercy 2019

 2. Queen of Katwe 2016

 3. Dark waters 2019

 4. Escape from Pretoria 2020

 5.  Sully: the miracle on the Hudson 2016



Take care,

Alina

Did you know that? Italy

Hello everyone 😇, Italy is the country that has adopted us. I have been living here for almost 4 years now. It has its ups and downs but as a grateful daughter, I will not talk about any negative aspect here. This post is about the interesting facts you probably didn't know about Italy. I didn't know some of them either. And it was fun enough to discover it now. So here they are! Did you know that: 1. Italy has more volcanoes than any other country in Europe. It hosts all 3 of Europe's active volcanoes; 2. Pizza was invented in Naples. And it has recently become UNESCO's patrimony. Not the pizza as a product but the process of making pizza; 3. Italy is the 5th most visited country in the world. It welcomes around 46 million foreign visitors every year. 4. Italy is the 5th most populous country in Europe; 5. It has more earthquakes than any other country in Europe; 6. Italian is the closest language to Latin; 7. According to Italians, 17 is considere

X reasons for why volunteering made me a better person

Image
I have met the term volunteering when I was in the United States, and I had completed my first volunteering hours. It never felt that I was doing something wrong. I knew volunteering was for me from the first experience. After that, when I came back home, everything happened naturally. An impressive number of projects and ideas started to appear in my life. I didn't even have to look for them. Unfortunately there  are people who still don't believe in volunteering - to give your time without being materially rewarded. However I am glad to see that there are more and more young people who want to make a change in their lives, communities and maybe even countries. So every time I was being asked what does it give you? I kept on answering that it is something that brings me joy, self esteem and pride! Besides that, I made up a list of more benefits, and I am sure that many other active volunteers will find themselves in this list. 1. I have met a lot of people. Almost each of

Did you know that?! Italian language

Image
 Dear Friends, How many Italian words do you know? I bet that many of you know at least 3 words. We use them more often then we think. Words like pasta, pizza or spaghetti have made their way to our vocabulary, and intend to stay there for a long time.  I used to love Italian ever since I was a little girl. It seemed so beautiful and romantic to me. Just like a melody. And now,  I am really glad to admit that Italian has become my 4th language. Of course, I don't speak it as a native, there is always place for improvement. But i am just happy to be able to learn it.  So, my post is dedicated to this wonderful and unique language. Don't think i am trying to convince you to learn it too. This choice is yours to make. I am just going to share with you some interesting facts about it. Here we go:  1. There are 21 letters in the Italian alphabet "j k w x and y" do not exist in Italian, except for the loan words;  2. There are many "regional languages of Italy".
