  • Trip to the Baltic countries, Estonia first

    My trip to the Baltic countries lasted 11 days in August 2017 and I returned for a weekend in May 2023. In this link is a verbatim account(in Italian only) of the encounters I had during this trip. This was the itinerary on my google maps. By Baltic countries I mean Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania,…

  • Video Niagara Falls

    Here is the Niagara Falls video, much requested by someone. This is the fifth, almost live, from my trip to Canada. It is done from above which is also the (free) best position. I also took the ferry ride, a fun experience, but you can see very little. From there I took the selfie with…

  • Coast to coast of Canada

    The coast-to-coast of Canada is one of my crazy ideas. Specifically it is a train ride from Jasper to Toronto. I did 3 out of 4 days of an ocean to ocean route. I skipped the first day (done by plane), to stay more in the Rocky Mountains, where I did beautiful wilderness walks. I…

  • Fires in Canada, what’s left of the one in 2024

    When I had planned the trip, I certainly had not thought about the fires in Canada. I knew there had been, even in the area where I would be, but I had not imagined that I would see the effects. This is the third video from Canada, still in one of the Rocky Mountain wilderness…

  • Travel to Canada, beginning in Vancouver

    In this article is the first almost live video from the travel to Canada, which I started from Vancouver. I am 8700 km from my home, never been this far west. I started an 18-day journey, solo and using public transportation, that is, the kind I prefer. On my maps that’s where they are. Nearly…

  • Sleeping with snakes in the house! (not free)

    I happened to sleep with snakes in the house on the occasion of my second time in Poland. But I have yet to finish the story of the first one. For our non-Italian reader friends, the term bin one stands for when someone makes a commitment and then does not fulfill it, so it is…

  • To miss the flight in Shiraz, Iran.

    Of the many silly things I had already done in life, to miss the flight. It was a ‘thrill I gave myself at the end of a trip that had been uneventful and for which I risked trouble getting home. Shiraz is not just a wine Shiraz was the last destination and is another beautiful…

  • During an RV trip, the Italian Trans-Siberian Railway

    On a weekend in April 2025 I managed to fulfill 2 wishes I had had in my head for a long time; to take a trip in an RV and the Italian Trans-Siberian Railway in Abruzzo. More generally, I wanted to delve into a Region that I had somewhat neglected until then and where I…

  • There is one place in Poland you absolutely must visit.

    For a place to absolutely visit, I am referring to Auschwitz, but I consider it an example. In fact, any of the other Nazi death camps and beyond could work just as well. Countless peoples have been martyred and exterminated throughout history, and for example, the injustices that to this day the State of Israel…

  • Meetings in Iran, how is Bud Spencer doing?

    Meetings in Iran are the other aspect that will always remain in my memory. Years earlier I had had an affair with an Iranian girl living in Bologna. Talking about her country and telling her about my trivial collection of magnets, she told me that they did not have them in Iran; this goes to…
