Things happen in a mother’s heart when her kid goes to school for the first time. Many of you have already experienced this. I got to live it for the first time this year. Or feel it. Technically it was simple, well organised and not so different from the kindergarten days. I am not going to get all melodramatic […]

Remember bell bottoms? If so, good for you. So do I but not because I was old enough to wear them. Thank god or jah or the flying spaghetti monster for that. I was less than 10 in their heyday and they’ve never made a comeback. Nowadays, the only time you see them is in […]

My Sicily. The alchemy of a journey
01/09/2015 by 2 Comments
A journey – head in the clouds and heart lost between the skyline and the rising sun. A journey, a rendez-vous, a place of expectations and future memories.
