ig: herdrafts I’ve started reading the Aeneid some weeks ago, quite big and complex book, also fascinating and full of Homeric references. Latin isn’t an easy language and I can’t reading it nor understand it as I would so this Italian translation has been the most sensible choice. I’ve also got two more classics, sketching and watching old movies, and organizing my reviews this early morning; I didn’t get enough sleep since this week started but I feel great.

they are the first bite into a pomegranate seed, the nectar of a sweet and forbidden honey, and the perfume of an incense that escapes ancient and forgotten temples.

Daily suffering starts now. At least the library is beautiful.

There is something about museums that is just so appealing. Immersing yourself in works of art and wondering what the artist could be thinking about when working on it, wandering around the different halls and entering new worlds, being surrounded by art-loving souls who might be trying to run away from their problems...

Get your coffee, tie your hair back and get to work. You’ve got goals to achieve
