Luca Bridgada Villa and Marco Cova
For Marco Cova and Luca Bridgada Villa their English Riviera five week adventure continues! Both are really enjoying the work placements arranged by Torquay’s Training Partnership.
The evening meal at the Sobey house last night was a riotous affair as we were joined by son Sam and his fiancé Sophie for a huge baked ham feast. Our evening meals with our two Italian super heroes always seem to last for hours and it makes a refreshing change to live life at a more Mediterranean rate!
We had a surprise the other day when Marco's parents (Paolo and Marinagela Cova) and sister (Francesca Cova) arrived for the evening. They had flown from Turin on the Sunday then came to see us on Monday evening before hopping back on a plane to Italy on Tuesday. They are wonderful people and we loved meeting them.
Both Marco and Luca have taken an active part in life on the English Riviera including having a traditional cream tea at Cockington Village.
Of course what we didn't know is that they are both super hero characters which is obviously good news for local residents in need of cosmic help!
For anyone thinking about offering accommodation to overseas students I would certainly recommend it. In these lacklustre times they bring a special vibrancy to the area and much needed boost to the beleaguered tourist industry.
Marco is working at Preston MOT and joined his new friends last Friday for a lunchtime chip butty. Now that really is super hero food! Luca's placement us at It's Your Money in Torquay and he says "They are really nice. I like it there."
