Into the wild. I truly love city life and its craziness but as well I want to remember the pleasure of quietness and the pervasive nature that we are part of. Nature is often set aside from our sight as we run into our daily life made of appointments, work, traffic jam and people. Although […]
From the Great War battlefields to a united Europe This is the title of the conference I organized in collaboration with the Representation of the European Commission in Italy and which was held on Thursday 25 October 2018 at Palazzo delle Stelline in Milan.

The reason might be that it is slightly further away, and also, the trio of Ljubljana, the Postojna Caves and Bled attracts many tourists, keeping them away from the rest of the Country. This part of Slovenia, however, has nothing to envy from that […]
