AsiaNews: “In 1962 I was sent to Taiwan. We set sail from Naples, we made a stopover in Hong Kong and then we arrived on this island where I have remained until today. My first mission was in Hsinchu, one hour from Taipei, where I worked with the poor on the outskirts of the city. There were many older people, especially the sick, alone and abandoned. I was trained as a nurse and I felt I had to stay with them, that I was capable of helping them. Then I was sent to Geelong, where I continued to work for the marginalized.
