"There is something different to learn every day. You meet new people, there is a new environment every time."

"What I learnt of my language [Urdu] I've learnt from these people here, and some clients. But I'm ashamed of talking with them, There are some words I can't really come up with, I'd rather not talk instead of doing something wrong."

Born in Pakistan, Billy has been in Italy since he was two months old. He is from Lippo, towards Borgo Panigale. He used to live in Rimini, but he moved to Bologna 15 years ago. Because of this, he barely speaks any Urdu, but has found Piazzola to be a rich place to learn -- both from other sellers and from buyers.

He has worked at Piazzola for a couple months every year for 4-5 years, and has developed loyal customers. Billy says sometimes buyers buy a product and then come back the next week to buy five more of them. The dynamicity of Piazzola is, for Billy, one of its special traits, as is the possibility of being in a social space while working.
