Episode 32: Introducing our Nonna Maria
from The Italian Australian Podcast · host Josephine D’Aqui and Lukas D’Aqui
We are thrilled to have finally gotten our beloved Nonna Maria on the Italian Australian Podcast. We have grown up extremely close with her and she has heavily impacted our lives and identity as Italian Australians. Born in Rome in 1936 she immigrated to Australia in 1960 with our Nonno and mum Rosalba. Like so many others, her experience of immigration was a struggle, however in some ways her experience was quite unique, being from Rome she found it hard to identify not only with Australian people but also the majority of other Italian immigrants who were predominantly from further south. This is a particularly special episode for us and we hope everyone enjoys it.
