I LOVE IT – when a PLAN comes together!

by Ingrid

Today I received an email from my lovely Architect Maurizio.  He has completed his plans and is meeting with the engineer to discuss it tomorrow.  One slight problem no bathroom has been factored in so I sent a reply with the help of google translate to offer my suggestions.  I also decided to flick a copy of the email to my friends to have a look at what I had sent.  Unfortunately I was told it made no sense so have followed up with a very very basic email and hope he understands me.

I have a few sketches of what I was thinking to do that I will email him tomorrow and see what he thinks.

Wish me luck!

ps – apologies for the lack of a post last week a few dramas on the high seas as it were which I’ll tell you about soon… Thanks for your patience.

      Thank you Cathy – actually the yacht is still out of the high seas at the moment but the drama remains! Will give you a ‘slice of life’ soon :)

      Yes indeed it is Janine!

      I was lucky enough to receive an email from my architect today he probably thinks I am LOOPY! But the good news the plan is the ‘current configuration’ not his design :)

      Part of the fun of renovating in a foreign country in a foreign language – I MUST learn Italian :)

      Saluti, Ingrid

  5. Hey Ingrid if you need any help with explanations my husband did all our renovations and had a property maintenance business. He is very practical and may be able to explain what it is you had in mind or check your email.

    Very exciting and great news for you!!
