CURRENT MISSION

My mission is obscured by all the monstrous and wonderful things this life has to offer, and I must say, I plan to take full advantage of them

ABOUT ME

There's a guy who put it perfectly (Sir Francis Bacon):

'Everything you need is a garden and a library'

Well, basically, thats it, though updated through the swirls and challanges of the roughness of life to be more fitting to the world today.

Film: A Good Year

everytime I say this film I get the unsuppressable feeling I have to get a good (red) wine and drink to 'Dolce far niente'.

After having visited Bologna seen many pieces of Fellini art and must say that Roma, and La Strada are in the same way of feeling good.

Book: Alexandre Dumas - The Count of Monte Christo
Not only is this work seamlessly intertwined with the good life in the above film, it is also the best story of revenge. A meticulously planned telling of what it is to hate someone more than anything and to carry it out accordingly.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Waking up - feeling the seabreeze flattering up your nostrils - while the morning sun lightly wakes you...

aboard the ferry from Igoumenitsa to Bari. We slept on deck because we had been kicked out of the first class lounge

On my last trip, to Japan, we travelled through the country on a rail pass but it ended before we could reach our final destination of Tokyo. We decided to go hitchhiking the last 400 km. To thank the people we hitched a ride with we brought some token presents (plastic flowers with a card saying 'Arigatou gozaimasu, [our names]'. One of the people that gave us a lift, an elderly women that spoke no English and so we couldn't communicate with - Japanese is just too damn hard - began thanking us profoundly for the small gift. She hurried to the trunk of the car and gave us cookies, garlic bread and toffees. Apparently - as we discovered later - some Japanese argue that one cannot be given a gift without returning some sort of gesture. We were just dumbfounded that we were given all these things, while she was the one that had already given us a lift. She even tried calling her relatives if anyone had time to take us to the destination.
