Defined as "the internet home for the foreign nation" is a social networking website oriented to those living away from their home country: immigrants, emigrants, foreigners. It has the intent to allow foreigners to find and connect with others like them living in their area or countrymen living in other areas. If you made it this far, you can join us. We specially invite people living away from their home countries, and people interested in connecting with them. It keeps things simple to develop the site in a single language and English is the internet's "lingua franca" (yes, we notice the paradox of using Italian here but the alternative was to use "de facto"...), this means is the most used language in the web and the best option to use. However, please feel free to translate to your own language: go to the site's home page and select your language from the Google Translate tool.
