Nonno and Nonna move to Canada

After finding it difficult to find work in Trieste due to the number of refugees, Nonno moved back to Canada in april of 1964 to set up a living situation, and after Nonno finished that, Silvia joined him in the Autumn of the same year.  They eventually bought a house in London, Canada (pictured), where I visited many times in my childhood.
