Savona Of My Love

By Luigi Speranza.

Ask an Italian his 'home' and he'll mention his 'province'. Unlike the USA, the Italians in Argentina remained loyal to the _provinces_ (never mind 'regions') they came from, and would associate mainly with people of the same province rather than wonder far.

----- The system now is very tidy: two letters for each 'province'. Find your own and comment.
