When you enter Slovenia you leave behind concepts such as traffic jam and you enter in incredibly green valleys. Close to the border with Italy flow the waters of the river Soča (fiume Isonzo in Italian). Once you arrive in Kobarid (Caporetto) you can already glimpse the top of Monte Krn. This area during the […]
Goodbye my darling, goodbye!
Custoza, a name that remained impressed into my mind since a friend of mine talked about it. Many times I passed nearby on the highway but this time I decided to stop, to go along those narrow country roads that led me where history of Italy and Europe has been written. “Goodbye my darling, goodbye” […]
On the peaks walking along a via ferrata.
Mountain photography offers amazing panoramas. Maybe one day I will give some tips about how to take photos at high altitude but first it is necessary to climb up there. Along my photographic work “Here They Fought! 1915-1918” I have been on many via ferrata, more or less vertical, and I had the chance to […]
Up there together with the Eagles.
The Queen of the Dolomites arouses fear even if you only glance at it, as it is made of dark rocks jutting out on the emptiness for thousands of metres, with sharp rock spires standing out against the sky, leaving below abysses that close your stomach only to look at them. Marmolada is a fascinating […]
A date with the moon!
“I have a date with the moon, at nine outside the city” these the words of a happy swing song of the thirties interpreted by the Trio Lescano and that I suggest you to listen. Moon inspired poets, singers and lovers from all over the world and from every time being so close and so […]
The other’s perspective.
The land of Costa Rica is something that will exceed your expectations. The national slogan “pura vida”, pure life, couldn’t be more realistic and effective. Life and death are everywhere, running after each other in a wild nature that represents the 5% of the planet’s biodiversity. This land is a kind of paradise for photographers, […]
Poppies are tall, tall, tall, history of a song deeper than what it seems.
Each springtime is pure joy. I use to go to the countryside where I love watching what risks to be unobserved in huge cities. Nature shows off with its entire splendour with explosions of colours, the vivid green, the cornfields, thorntrees full of white flowers, everywhere springtime is in the air. Fields are tarnished of […]
See you soon in Cervia!
Yesterday closed the third stop around Italy of the Exhibition “Here They Fought! 1915 – 1918 On the Great War’s Trail”. Huge thanks to the visitors for their precious comments on the exhibition’s book. It is hard to choose the best one as they are all touching. On 15th May 1915 they were fighting on […]
The International Erasmus Games colours in Milan!
There are friendship and happiness stories. In my long experience close to the Erasmus world I have seen many of those stories and I cannot hide that sometime, in front of occasions such as this ones, I can be touched by all this feelings of unity and happiness coming from the voluntary world. IEG, meaning […]
A coffee in Ljubljana meeting the Artist Jakov Brdar.
I have been in Ljubljana many times and I have been always fascinated by some small sculptures spread all around the city. Fish looking like piranha on the Butchers’ Bridge, dozens of small faces coming out of a narrow street in the old town, birds, a wolf and many other creatures watch this amazing middle […]
