Italie épisode #3.4 La Residenza

12.00am today, after 3 years, I went to request the town council to officially register as a human being luckily living (and working) on the italian soil. The very famous italian red tape... It will take 6 months to get that paper (that cannot be named a "permit of stay" anymore as we are EU citizens in an EU country)

Well I was surprised to find an almost empty office at 45 minutes by car from work and the civil servants were not especially unefficient nor unpleasant. Gratefully the lady accompanying me for the formalities had prepared all the files and documents. Only gaffe, the public officer to ask "Ma lei è maggiorenne?"* mmh yes and by far...








*Is she of age?
