Meet Severino, one of the survivors of the ill-fated Ship Costa Concordia
It was like a home to him for he spent almost 4 years onboard the ship as this was his 5th trip (first trip after getting married). When the ship tilted, a large food trolley came rolling towards him causing injury to his leg/knee Mr. Severino Colaco, happy to be home with family http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukextra3/6746712803/in/photostream http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoaukextra3/6746715067/in/photostream/ Luxury liner, Costa Concordia, capsized in Italian waters on January 13.
