At our second meeting with elderly citizens of Lugano, we decided the center in the center of the city called La Piazzetta. Even thought I was certain that we would be able to listen to some interesting stories, I was a bit anxious of having to speak to so many elderly ladies at the same time! Once we arrived at the center we were introduced to the members of this center. It was evident that they were expecting our arrival, since they were dressed at their best.
I realized that starting a conversation was harder than I though, since neither them nor us were able to find a common topic of interest. However, I found that as we got to know each other, we were able to easily communicate, and I heard some fascinating stories. One of the ladies, who was wearing black glasses, told us stories about her relationship with men. I couldn't believe that such stories exist, since I would only see them on Television. Overall, I had a wonderful time, and I hope to visit La Piazzetta soon again.
