Vi ringrazio ancora per la vostra ospitalità, è stato un vero piacere ritrovarvi.
Spero nel mio secondo viaggio di settembre di potervi rivedere. Ho già ricevuto da alcuni teatri qualche risposta diplomatica, ma credo dovrò tornare per cercare meglio lavoro.
Ti ringrazio per la tua attenzione.

I thank you again for your hospitality, it was a real pleasure to meet you again. Hopefully I'll see you again during my second trip in September. I've already received some diplomatic replies from some theaters, but I think I'll have to get back over there to do a better job search.
Thank you for your kindness.

"to look for a better job", in the original text was explained that "cercare meglio lavoro" is to be intended like "cercare in modo più approfondito un lavoro", not "cercare un lavoro migliore"

I think this should be "over there for looking better a job"

It should be "to look better for a job", but it doesn't sound good to me.
Anyway, the requester told us he meant "a better search" and not "a better job".

Wouldn't the second sentence (Spero...) be something like: "I hope I'll be able to see you again during my second trip in septembre".
Because I think that in the source text in italian the person writing isn't sure (or maybe I didn't understand at all) whereas in the translation it is said that it's sure (Hopfully I'll see you again...)

I don't think there is a great difference, stell.
He is sure he will go in September, and he hopes to see those people.
I think hopefully here means "if everything goes right" = I hope.

Might i ask... why is it "i still thank you" and not "i thank you again"?

can it be "also thank you for..."? because it's not the first "thank" sentence of the whole text, what we were transalting was an exerpt.

Yes, Maski you are right!
In this case, "ancora" is "again", "another time"

I've edited according to Maski's notification, but after I just saw pluiepoco's note, then I think he may be right about "also thank you for..", which would avoid to repeat "again"...
What do you think?

I don't know... English isn't my best language... If it's the same meaning of again, it's ok...

It is slightly the same meaning, if you said (I'll use French for you to understand better)
"encore merci pour...", or "je te remercie aussi pour...", it means that you already told "thank you" before about another thing...
See what I mean?

I think "encore merci" is perfect...

Well if you really want to avoid repetition perhaps "i thank you once more for your"... would be ok? Although I really don't think it's a problem as it is.

Something happened here that I don't understand. After the two first messages, nava's and mine, yesterday I saw that the sentence about the job had been edited (by kafetzou, if I remember well); "...a better search for a job". Who changed it?
Neither I understand whom Sah he's talking to, when she says she has changed something.
I thank you once more is OK.
(Sorry for not noticing "still" before, I problably read it as "I'm still grateful", but this can't be the right meaning)
