When winter passes, the cuckoo starts singing and the air becomes infused with spring fragrances, and with love.

Cettina and Alex show us how they decorate their Christmas tree.

Cettina shows us how to make a very basic nativity scene.

Spring is here and Cettina is enjoying the outdoors. Flowers are starting to bloom, trees are getting leaves, and the sunshine is warm enough to go without a jacket.

There are plenty of Italians living in Germany. Cettina from Sicily interviews Alfonso, also from Sicily, as it turns out. Here are some easy questions and answers for when you meet someone for the first time.

A new comedy from RAI television. What you need to know about the title Chi m'a visto (Who has seen me/who saw me) is that it makes every Italian think of the TV show Chi l'ha visto (who has seen him/her) about finding missing persons. Is there a connection?

Martino (guitarist for the famous Italian singer Lorenzo Jovanotti) is having a rough time making his way in the pop music world and coming out of the shadows. Playing well isn't enough, and he isn't getting any help from the lighting crew or his own manager.

Martino was left at the train station, but he has to take the bus back to his hometown where he meets up with his friend. A song about wandering plays as he travels: "Vagabondo", sung by Nicola di Bari.

At the bar, Martino sees some old townsmen who tease him and tell him he should get a real job. One of the old guys mentions Fred Bongusto, an Italian singer known for a song "A Rotunda on the Sea". Martino and Peppino go off in a three-wheeled Ape (bee), a light commercial vehicle common all over Italy. Peppino cites Roberto Bolle, a famous Italian dancer, and Men and Women, a TV show for dating.

Martino finally goes home to his mother, and discovers that she watches the show Uomini e Donne (Men and Women) like everyone else, so she knows who Samantha is. Martino calls Laura, or tries to.

Martino and Peppino go to the Kursal, and as we could expect, finding Laura doesn't turn out so well. Martino has some hard thinking to do.

Martino goes back home and finds his mother in tears in front of the TV. He thinks it's about him. He goes to see Peppino and wakes him up to tell him about an idea he has had. Peppino is not alone.

Martino goes to Peppino's house to tell him his great idea. Peppino is kind of busy, though... The local priest spies Martino walking home and engages him in conversation, which is the last thing Martino wants.

Peppino and Martino visit the old house of Peppino's late grandfather. The house is falling apart, but Martino thinks it's perfect for his plan. Peppino wonders if Martino is on drugs...

Martino is settling in Peppino's grandfather's house, trying to make it inhabitable. Peppino does something he thinks is essential for the cause, but Martino is devastated and tells him to leave.
