When the quarantine is over, please do not take your cars, fast vehicles. Have a nice walk, wherever you are, every time I go to #berlin I always walk a lot, for more than 5 years now, and that's the reason why I love to be there, walking, fills me with creativity of inspiration and contact with myself. The beauty of discovering every place, pulling as many stories as possible, and when you really thought you knew a place, here comes a different light, a person, an action or just a new flyer. ⠀
A few weeks ago or maybe a month ago, I spent a day with these friends, while they were painting, I was shooting videos and taking pictures, I have so much material about them, so much that I should finish editing the video and move on, we'll see if I'll get the inspiration to finish this work too.⠀
So many things change in a few days, and in a few days there are so many lives that are extinguished, so many days that pass, as many as the sighs that we emit, so many leaves that fall and those that grow back. In this time we have, sometimes we have to stop and understand how we exploit it.⠀
That's how two #mannequins showed me their humanity, that's how I remained motionless and fascinated by a plush yeti, postcards from a past #Berlin, time and the radio tower, the detail of a building, reflections and waiting, and all those shops and staff that inhabit the world. This is my photographic work, the research and discovery of what we have around us and very often we ignore. ⠀

A few years ago I was for two days at #cinqueterre with an Argentine friend, I took the opportunity of some free time to go back and look at the photos taken over the years and I found many beautiful places visited, the view of #manarola from this photo arouses very intense memories.
I hope to be able to recover also the photos of #vernazza , #monterossoalmare , #riomaggiore , #portovenere and #laspezia, especially because my mother lived there for a while near #chiavari, living memories of the last years spent together. Surely I remember the quality of #madeinitaly especially on food and furniture. #instaitalia 🇮🇹⠀

It's hard to understand why everything here is so #expensive. Everything, #food, #rent, #transportation, I don't understand how you can make people live with the constant pressure to be broke or continue to live in gold.
I feel the place more than plagiarized by money, much more than in the many cities you visit. All maximized by fashion, prejudice, radical thinking. Of course people leave cities like this in record time. Those who are attracted by easy money don't pay attention to everything else. But I notice that it is also very difficult to make acquaintances. We'll see what will happen, it usually takes a while, especially when you travel to a place you've never visited. Time will also reveal other faces. Surely from many stimuli, this city, but it drains many others at the same time. I would like to hear the words of people who live here, understand the various aspects, places and routines as they develop. So far it's all so monotonous in its work cycle.
Meanwhile I let myself be stimulated by led lights, yellow, red and blue. These shades are anything but grey. London has a light all its own, direct and blinding but that can create tones that you don't see so often.
Ah! They could have put wifi in the tube.

Once upon a time
Normal was considered
The path of a man
and his research.
At the time the man
Now see if and his kind
Forced by duty.
But to whom?
I move step by step
towards the unknown
And the life that welcomes me
I can feel it like the wind.
that guides my mind.

5 places to visit in Berlin as if you lived there!
How often do we take a trip and want to stay and live for a while? How much do we want to know the habits of those who live there?
Since my way of approaching places is always very intimate and discovering new interactions, I'm going to publish the 5 places that will make you feel like a citizen of Berlin. After living there for many years and visiting them at least 50 times say it is time to share this experience.
Read also: 10 Reasons why travelling alone is good for you.
1.Cafe Am Kotti Adalbertstraße 96B, 10999 Berlin, Germania
It's a sort of mix of cafes, bars and space for live music . It has a real Kneipe vibe, frequented by students and digital nomads, usually you can find some inconvenient, but nobody ever bothered me. It's an unpretentious place that goes from coffee to beer as the day progresses.The wifi is decent and there’s usually at least a few people working here at any given time, but try not take over an entire table to yourself.
I love to have a good espresso coffee, a milchckaffee or spend evenings with friends drinking beers, the cost is accessible to anyone and the musical selection is always at the top.
2.Schankwirtschaft Laidak Boddinstraße 42/43, 12053 Berlin, Germania
Absolutely one of the most loved place in Berlin. The prices fit for everyone, you can drink really good beer and cocktails , and the staff is always kind! You can sit in no smokers area or smokers area and work, read, take relax or meet new interesting people for hours! Be considerate and be willing to share. The place is full of books, you can really find anything. The wifi is really good, most of the time I had good wifi and never had problem.I love to drink teas that are always very large and vary with fresh ingradients and good quality leaves at a very low price.
3.Pequod Books Selchower Str. 33, 12049 Berlin, Germania
The book shop I loved most in Berlin and beyond! Alvaro the owner has become a great friend, that every time I'm in that area I have to say hello, and most of the time I spend hours having interesting conversations on all kinds of topics. A person with refined taste, who can always advise you the right reading!
Whatever book you do not find in your mother language anywhere else, try here at Pequod Books. Enjoy the sofa, Pecorino the pappmaché cat and the good consulting of the owners.
Owner literally knows every book in his store. a pure dream as customer.
4.Maroush Adalbertstraße 93, 10999 Berlin, Germania
If you're wondering if you should go there because the interior is not very promising, you should have no doubt! The food is delicious! Shawarma and Falafel's dishes are the best. Large portion, delicious garlic sauce, and the best pickled radish. The place and the food are authentic and you won't be disappointed. Give them a quick but tasty lunch break. Unique dishes where they serve various types of meat, hummus, salad, potatoes accompanied by excellent pita. Despite the apparent chaos fast service, low prices.
5.RISA Chicken Schönhauser Allee 45, 10435 Berlin, Germania
RISA is a place to visit in Berlin for a typical chicken lover, accepts both cash and credit cards, the staff speaks German, English and Arabic and the place is clean and tidy.
Prices are adequate and the menu is easily numbered in case you are not good with words. I think this is the ultimate place to taste a cuisine that is generally only offered by big chains like KFC, but here we are on another level, Risa is the fast food I love the most about Berlin.
There are many other places I will tell you about, but if you are planning a trip to Berlin, my advice is don't follow the preformatted tourist guides, Berlin is a city that needs to be discovered in a personal way, walk, stop, talk to other people, enjoy life and your instinct, and try one of these places, you won't regret it.

Why travel alone? There is no exact answer to this question, but many experiences accumulated by many people. Surely it is an experience to test yourself, to explore not only the world, but above all yourself.
I made my first solo trip to Athens in 2015. For a few days, but it was an experience that marked my life forever. I did it initially because I needed to discover. I decided to leave home, break with the past and start a new phase by buying a plane ticket to a new country.

In this post I want to tell you the reasons why travelling alone is one of the most beautiful adventures you can have in life.
It doesn't matter how long you travel, the important thing is to take the decisive step. The experience you will have will be the tools of your life.
1. Discover your limits.
Traveling alone you will discover what your limits are and how willing you are to challenge them. Do you think you are comfortable sleeping in a dormitory with 30 people or sleeping in a tent in a forest?
2. Living with little.
When you are on the road you learn to appreciate simplicity. There is no more room for over-consumption and lots of souvenirs. From one day to the next you will find yourself no longer thinking about what to buy, but rather how to live beautiful hours with people who stimulate you and breathe the air you prefer.
3. Learn languages.
Being on the road also means facing the language bug. You will learn a lot of languages, and you will always want more. English alone or your mother tongue will no longer be enough, you will stimulate your brain to new idioms and expressions that will highlight your person better.
4. True friends.
Being on the road for many days will take you away from family and friends, and only from this point on will you understand who really loves your company. Many people will move away from you that you are no longer a fixed point in those moments of boredom of the day. Only those who have this experience will realize how few people really remain in your life.
5. There is always room for new acquaintances.
The more you travel, the more you will accumulate. Your reality will expand to many others, which will allow you to live your everyday life in a different way than before. You will be more aware of the world around you and the infinite possibilities, that you will wonder how you have been able to think only from one point of view.
6. The priorities in your life.
By coming into contact with new people, situations, sounds and smells, you will be able to consider your 'real' life at home more objectively. You will wonder if the things that used to be so important are still important. I, for example, have reduced all of my material possessions by 90%, until everything is packed in one piece of hand luggage.
7. Being responsible.
Travelling alone you can only blame yourself. You will learn to take responsibility and make fewer mistakes. Suddenly you realize that the world around you is exactly the cause of your actions.
8. To have a relationship with yourself.
Sometimes you may wish you had someone to share with, but as you travel alone you will learn to feel good in your own company. After a few days with other people, you may even feel the need for a little solitude. You will love the silence and time spent cultivating your passions.
9. Open-mindedness.
When traveling alone, you are more likely to question your beliefs and convictions. With no one to share them with, you will learn to open yourself to new lifestyles and to doubt your prejudices about certain cultures or traditions.
10. Traveling alone means never being alone.
Many times a travel companion is unwanted, it is random.
But that randomness turns into a blessing: someone with whom you can try new foods or have experiences that you would never have done alone. You cook together exchanging oil and forgotten spices, you get lost among a thousand different words and find yourself in the universal language of smiling. Thus, perfect strangers become inseparable travel companions. We help each other when we are sick, we make plans and share travel expenses. You share a piece of life.
Conclusion
When you leave alone you just have to do one thing: open the doors of your heart and mind. Leave with a light soul, leaving your prejudices and fears at home.

I’m back in Naples, Sant'anastasia precisely, I let you imagine, without a car the impact is like going from New York to the desert. Luckily there is the @victory_caffe which is always hospitable, where I spent some time chatting with friends and working on the planning of the next trip that I will reveal better in the coming days! - Pictures made with #iphonexs Edited with #adobelightroom -#narrowdistances (at Victorycaffe) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8Mk5kBC4Lv/?igshid=1n0mvulx9rhcy
Let's go back for a moment to the beginning of this New Year.
I have to go back to the beginning of this 2020 for a moment
So that's the way things went, starting 2020 I decided that I would invest time and money in the realization of an entire project at 360 degrees of everything I create and with all the tools I use.
I deleted all the videos I had on youtube and I started to upload new content, from there I planned a series of trips and contacted various people on couch surfing, On January 18th I left for London, and I stayed until January 24th, from there I flew to Berlin, where I spent my days, between videos and photos until today.
I worked for a while on the video of London, but I realized that it's not for me the work of the Vlog, it doesn't make me excited the situation of putting a camera in front of me to talk, surely it's much more pleasant to work on videos not with me as the protagonist, but with the images themselves. During my travels I tried to approach new people, but I realized that it is difficult to make new friends if you are new in a city.
Now I'm writing this post from Berlin airport, where I'm waiting for the 6:05 am flight that will take me to Naples.
Surely my travels don't end here. For several choices I have postponed my trip to Budapest which was scheduled for February 3, but I'm already planning to make another one for the end of February, traveling on the route Berlin > Prague, passing through Dresden and several other villages in Germany.
If you want real-time news and want to watch the content I'm creating, follow me on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
Whatever you prefer!
Enjoy
Hey, i wrote a little book and i published on Amazon.
Here the description of the book:
Each trip is a unique and unrepeatable experience that marks the life of those who have wandered. Life after death is a journey that sooner or later we will all reach, but what it triggers is always different.
My life after the death of my mother has undergone a change, which opened a fracture, you have the feeling that everything that happened until a day before, is something bound to a distant past light years. The questions multiply, the vision narrows, loneliness becomes a companion, what causes death? There are many questions that I have asked myself, and I have accumulated a large number of answers, in the form of poems. Poems come to meet us, when we feel the need to outline in the best possible way what we visualize inside our brains. The world we knew, undergoes a transformation and we inside it.
If you want buy my book is available worldwide click to link to get a copy: https://amzn.to/2S2fAO1
Hope you will enjoy it!

Yesterday was a smiling day! A first look at the tourist, cultural, aesthetic London, made of colours and money. But the real London, I think, is in the meandering streets in the suburbs, in the kitchens and offices, and that's why I'll dig a bit deeper. Maybe even investigating at night, what is this unique city hiding? What will you tell me about it? A bit like people, the daughter cities of men, have stories to tell and if you don't spend the time you need to open them, it is difficult to listen to them. Then you have to keep waiting, with the maximum openness and with the respect they deserve.
Anyway, I’m starting to look on instagram to find someone tell me them stories. So if everyone know someone here, can share this post I published on instagram!
Anyway, Good Morning ☀️
