What's a good way to get there from Palermo? Any colectivo that is not confusing?

Somebody mentioned usd600 flights on air france to canada or europe a few weeks back.

I was in a similar situation once in another country. The landlord needed the place vacant to rent to a relative, so invented a spurious reason to end the lease, plus added some shouting and violence. What I did was to find a pro-bono attorney. The attorney wrote a letter to the landlord...

Hi Rachel, Re dance class prices. Group dance class prices seem to be around 25 pesos per single drop-in these days. There are much higher rates at for example at EAT. The rate at DNI if you buy a ten-pass card is much lower, and the card has no expiration period. My impression is that...

I will be going to this, when I can figure out where it is.

When I was working while staying in large hotels, we often used an electric rice cooker to prepare simple meals. You can shred vegetables and steam them over the rice while the rice is cooking. The only place I have seen an electric rice cooker here in the large food store in Barrio Chino, on...

I am always up for ways to learn and practice more partner/social dances. So keep me posted on what evenings the class would be. I would be open to working on most anything for a month. Maybe a samba on the slower end of the samba tempo, if that's not an oxymoron. Big-band swing music...

Thursday in Palermo is good for me, I'll try to make the next one. I'll PM you with my contact info.

Checking back to see how its going. Good news! F'ing keys. So I have found after much key copying here and other f'ing around with locks, that all keys here are created unequal. - Check your other key copies and whether they work a differently a little, blah? - If you are near Palermo...

The Notorius jazz club, cafe and CD store is still thriving, been remodeled, same location. The Thelonius jazz club is also great - so you have some things to get started with.
