Nonostante sia li, a poche ore di macchina, in Slovenia ci siamo sempre passati ma mai fermati. Questa volta abbiamo deciso di dedicare un viaggio e un documentario a questo paese, nostro vicino. La Slovenia non ha grandi monumenti o attrazioni di fama mondiale, ma un sacco di piccole gemme, piccole e perfette, non ancora toccate dal turismo di massa Questo paese ha saputo sintetizzare e prendere il meglio dei suoi vicini più famosi. A Pirano, sembra di stare in un quartiere

(ENG) Iceland: a travel documentary
This time we are in Iceland, for a short adventure in the far North. A land of volcanos, waterfalls and glaciers. We have only 4 days and adverse weather conditions with unstoppable rain and cold temperatures. We start the first day exploring the Golden Circle, the easy itinerary a few hours from Reykjavik.

(ENG) Georgia: a travel documentary
Georgia is a little gem squeezed between Europe and Asia. It is called the balcony of Europe, as it hangs out of the Caucasus mountains, overlooking the lands of the Turks and the Persians. Georgia are friendly and welcoming, though fierce of their traditions. The Motherland statue overlooking Tbilisi well represent the Georgian national character: in her left hand she holds a bowl of wine to greet those who come as friends, and in her right hand is a sword for those who come

(ENG) Valencia Street Art documentary
We continue to explore the worldwide street art scene. This time I use a few spare hours I got in Valencia, to discover the Barrio El Carmen, in the historical centre of the city. First of all, I have to recognise that the quantity and the quality of graffiti and street art is astonishing.

(ENG) Discovering Naples and Pompeii
Here we go, it is one of the most ancient cities in Europe with over 3,000 years of history. It passed ages of extreme grandeur and other of profound decline. It's Naples. We start from the historical centre. A grid of streets where you can find every possible architectural style: Greek buildings, Roman theatres, Gothic churches, Medieval walls, renaissance "palazzo" and so on. Well, the center is beautiful but also quite run-down. Garbage and graffiti are everywhere and clum

(ITA) Ferrata delle Trincee nelle Dolomiti
Da un paio d’anni io e Milan pianificavamo un’escursione sulle Dolomiti sulle tracce delle trincee della Grande Guerra. Finalmente quest’estate riusciamo ad organizzarci. Verso luglio contatto un amico di famiglia di lunga data, Andrea, che so essere diventato un appassionato alpinista (CAI di Oderzo) che si offre di entusiasticamente di accompagnare noi due principianti. Come escursione propone la Ferrata delle Trincee in quanto molto scenica e abbordbaile (secondo lui). Qua
