"For two years now I've been taking the bus by myself to the workshop where I work with Franca.
At first, they taught me how to do it. Matteo would go with me, and sometimes Cecilia too, and we'd pretend we didn't know each other.
Gradually I learned to take it on my own—at least to get out of the house. Now they walk me to the stop, and I make the trip alone on the bus.
It makes me really happy and proud."
