Encounters

Tales of fellow travelers met in Darjeeling

While I was walking here I was already thinking on how I would start this blog post: “I’m sitting on the terrace of my hotel, drinking coffee and enjoying the view on the hills around Darjeeling”. Instead I’m sitting in the lounge with other travelers, from the window you can’t see absolutely nothing due to a thick fog, and they brought me tea…

Greetings and kisses from Pokhara Old Town

Greetings and kisses from Pokhara Old Town

I wrote this in October 2010 while I was traveling around Nepal and India. I’ve translated and added pictures.

Earlier today I went for a walk in the old town of Pokhara. I left at about midday.

My day had started with the wrong foot. With a loosen backpack, a broken boot, a lost hairbrush, nostalgia. I left under the burning sun (or so it seemed to me), the old town much further than it…

Cronaca da Bandipur

  Questa guest house è fenomenale. Mi sembra di vivere un’esperienza nel passato,…

Sulle colline di San Zeno

La passeggiata era organizzata in occasione della sagra che si svolge qui ogni anno. La sagra di San Zeno dura due weekend verso la fine di Aprile, ed è un mix di cibo, musica e cultura. Ogni giorno c’è qualche…

[:en]A lassi to remember[:it]Un lassi per ricordare[:]

[:en]Sometimes when I am at home I make myself a lassi. It’s a delicious drink made with yogurt and fruit that I discovered in India.

I prepare it for myself because, as many Indians reminded me while I was there, it’s “24 hour power”. And it takes me back to the incredible trip I had in that colorful country.

I actually had my first lassi in Nepal, in Janakpur, that being a border town has many…
