The other day I went as usual to the beach and I m The other day I went as usual to the beach and I met a group of surfers.. It seems that before it wasn't usual to do surfing but now more and more people are getting interested in this amazing sport!
Since the year I started to live a nomad life, I a Since the year I started to live a nomad life, I always had a special tradition: to celebrate my birthday in the best way possible, so in my language, in a different Country out of Europe. And so, I started this habit of spending my birthday in Buenos Aires, then in the Golden city of Rajasthan in India, in Cambodia, in Philipinnes, and Morocco...
I loved the idea to celebrate the passing of time doing what I like more and so, celebrating life in my way. 

This year is completely different than others, my life has changed as the life of many people, as the world its self have changed, but the thought that keeps me going and trying to continue to be positive and proactive, is the consciousness that I'm a lucky person and I'm grateful for what life gave me and for what I was able and brave enough to achieve.
In this difficult situation, it's nice to have no regrets, to know that, as long as you could, you have lived your life to the full, exactly as you have dreamed of, that you have explored the world in your own small way, to have made your life a real adventure, not caring what people and Society say.

This time I couldn't respect my traditions, but I still decided to give myself a gift, not so bad, isn't it?!

In the meanwhile, I keep myself busy appreciating the little things and obviously imagining with open and dreamy eyes how much more beautiful and special it will be to be around the world again.
Some days ago I finished reading this amazing book Some days ago I finished reading this amazing book I bought in Nepal during my last trip to Asia...
A book about a man and his unique adventure and life experience in Tibet and his special encounter and friendship with the Dalai Lama...
A book about travels, freedom, exploration of new places, and inside your soul, a story about the special encounters you meet on the way...
Reading these pages pure emotions and a deep nostalgia overwhelmed me, thinking about the time I was wandering around the world, the time I spent in 
my beloved Continent Asia...
But as a dear friend of mine once told me, "if you cannot go outside, go inside" and, as nothing is immutable, all passes like the water of a river which is never the same...

Just found out about a new lockdown in my region, Just found out about a new lockdown in my region, sigh...
That's a really though and hard time overall when I think about my travel life before all this... I look at the pictures of this summer thinking how just a short trip was able to charge completely my energies and soul...

As I said to my friends the only thing we can do now for our body and soul is try our best to keep positive and remember that everything passes and is mutual as the water that flows on the river...
