Moved To Smoking Land

So I moved with my husband and baby to Italy where almost every single person smokes. Everyone is enjoying summer, sitting outside, sipping on coffees or a drink and SMOKING. It really sucks. They are unapologetic about it and seem to have no thoughts about quitting. It is making me so nosgalsic for a cigarette. How will I survive this move and remain intact as a non smoker.

Think about all you have gained this past year, Star.

My vacation in Greece was one of the most trying week's I had. Though it was only a week. Stay strong and enjoy the good things Italy has to offer!

Hey Star_Girl101 - how are you getting on now? I so understand where you are coming from, just back from a break in Rome and god it was horrendous to see that EVERYONE smokes, thankfully, the smell that I detest kept me from buying a pack :)
