Welcome to Sellia
It has been two months since I decided to put together this forum. At the beginning I thought it would serve as a place where old and new friends could chat about our little but always unique place at the feet of the Sila mountains, where the green of olive groves, oaks, chestnut trees, pines is often adorned with the colors of countless fruit trees: cherries, oranges, pears, apples, mulberries, figs, prickly-pears and many others. Where the sun shines brighter, the sky is bluer, the air is cleaner and everything tastes better. Sellia is a small town, only a few hundred people live there and the reason is that, throughout the years, many in harder times emigrated elsewhere in search of work and a better future for their offspring.
Many of those people traveled to far away lands, some returned to their birthplace after a short time, some after many years, others never did.
This virtual corner is reserved for you: the sons and daughters of those sons and daughters of Sellia who left their town but I'm sure they never forgot.
This is your virtual town square, your "piazza" where you could mingle with us in sharing our common roots. Please join us, this towns is also your town! Welcome!

Re: Welcome to Sellia
At least you could have written the name of your town correctly, a lost tourist could have had the chance to find it on the map, on his way to Sellia. :face:

Re: Welcome to Sellia
Magara. Magari you'd better write "strength" and not strenght. In addition, Simmari is a oneway village! I remember: What a pain in the neck it was to go there by bus, on my way back to Sellia from CZ!!!

Re: Welcome to Sellia
I make always mistakes with these buttons.
What a pain in the neck
Now, you're wrong.
In English.. it's "I hurted my neck".
Pain is a word that means another kind of grief.

Re: Welcome to Sellia
Hi there Peter! Welcome to the forum where the "Selliesi" from all over the world meet to share their thoughts. I live in Italy and I was born in Sellia. I can't disclose more than that about my identity because I, like practically everybody else but a few ones, have chosen to join the forum using a nickname (I'll drop you a line by private message and I'll fill you in on that). So, I'm glad that you have been able to track back your relatives. Before I go, I just wanted to tell you that I love soccer and, being a fan of Penn State, I do like football too. It could well be that you don't even care about sports in general and football specifically. However, let me tell you that you have the Buckeyes which is a great team, but, last year, on the 25th of october, I watched on TV, the game Buckeyes vs Niattany Lions, before an Ohio Stadium-record crowd of 105,000...few minutes to go and, all of sudden, the sun went down, and it was dusk for the Buckeyes...who, for a split of a second, they thought to be in "SUndusky" instead of Columbus. The Lions had won 13 to 6...Take care.

I am sure there will be more coming to this forum
Looks like the Pittsburgh Steelers won the Super Bowl. And Cleveland Browns are not so good this year. Better luck next year as long as it is controlled by the stock market who can win that way. But someone has to tell me the ways of Italy, why some talk is seems forbidden. I just do not understand. email me peter_pullano@yahoo.com I am the couch potato as we call it. My grand father left Sellia 1909 also his father.

Peter, what talk is that
Okay, I ask about my past relativies, if they are related to me and how. I ask about pictures of the home in Sellia where my Grand father was born and raised. It really does not take much to drive 3 miles to take a couple pictures. It is a lot easier than taking a plane trip getting a hotel rent a car just to take a couple pictures. I would say it maybe a BIG deal if they I ask them to drive 4 miles. Is the Italian government a dictatorship? I was speaking with people with the same last name and everytime I ask about relativies from the past, I get cut off, and they do not speak to me for weeks and sometimes months.

Sarebbe opportuno per noi poveri ignoranti che non conosciamo l'inglese, che qualcuno traducesse quanto viene testè scritto. Grazie
