Stella Mia (2014)
“We’re taking a day trip to Panarea, the smallest of the Aeolian Islands. Later this afternoon, we will set off for the island of Filicudi, where we will spend the night and all of the day tomorrow.
Panarea, like Taormina, is popular with the rich. But for some reason, the wealth seems even more ostentatious here. Though I saw plenty of wealthy people in Taormina, it was still hard for me to get accustomed to seeing how they were able to splurge with their money, when in my family every lira spe...nt was carefully weighed before the purchase was made. Luxuries like eating at fine restaurants and having our hair done at a salon were not realities for us. While I have grown a bit more accustomed to Carlo’s beautiful gifts and his treating me to nice restaurants and taking me to other wonderful places, once again I cannot rid myself of the guilt, especially when I think of my family’s struggles. All I can pray for is that someday I can share with them a bit of the lifestyle Carlo has introduced me to.MoreLess
