Viewpoint


One of the better views I've had in the Dolomites, in last year's summer. This autumn I'll be here again. I can't wait to see what this looks like with autumn colours. Is it the end of September yet?

Living in #Italy, I rarely take pride of living compatriots: that's silly and a cliché, and it's stupid to take pride of something you did not do (I guess).

But let me forget this for a second.

So sure, I can be proud of Sinner, Mattarella, Muti, Giannotti, Piano et al. (NOT in this order)

...But of all italians, let me be 100% proud of #FrancescaAlbanese (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francesca_Albanese), who definitely is the Italian of the moment

And for what it matters, I stand by her. 💪🏼 💪🏼 💪🏼 💪🏼

Respiro a pieni polmoni l'aria sottile dell'alta montagna, mi abbandono fiducioso all'abbraccio del bosco, scopro i segreti della vecchia guida della Valle del Cervino. Senza fatica, con il sorriso sulle labbra.

Venerdì 18 luglio picnic nella foresta di protezione di Antey e chiacchierata sugli impianti veramente geniali della SIP.
