A wise man

How to celebrate a great wise man?  Probably the best way is to go in one of his spacial places, open a bottle , light up a candle and think about him together with a friend.
i hope he appreciated it.

Trip to Portugal

After 18 years the life brought me back to the most western european Country. Of course, conditions and confort are a little bit improved but emotions are still very vivid.
As most part of the mediterranean contries, Portugal is also very catholic, and so churches are a huge part of local culture.
Some of them enormous, some medium and some so small and sweet, but all of them are carrying centuries of history.

one week in the ex-ddr

When i got the invitation to go to Germany it was not so exciting. I decided to go, just because it was in the ex-ddr, after 25 years of the lst event, and i was supposed to work a week in a zoo.
Yes, in real zoo, with my screaming chainsaw, in front of tigers, linos, gibbons and donkeys!!!
One of the strangest experiences for me, in one of the most desolated place on the planet, but full of intense memories.
Even after 25 years in those streets you can still smell the tension of the cold war.

A tiny cute trip to Morocco

A little touch of Africa. Very short, but enough to let me feel the interesting taste of that great land.
The croud of the small streets fo Marrakesh and the screams of the bargains are still in my ears.
The bright red of the walls, and the deep blue od the Ysl 's garden are engraved in my eyes.
His Majesty the Atlas.

Ski season is over

Yes!!!! finally, the ski season is over....it's a way a bit sad, but aswell is great to have again time for myself.
Today it was almost raining in the morning, but then it turns out as a great stunning day!!!
I decided to go for a little tour, just to feel my legs tired and my mind fresh. And it works !

skiing up during the sunrise

Waking up at 6 just to ski up the slopes it can sound very stupid, and maybe it is!!! But in this time of the year, day by day, you can see the difference in the sunrise timing. The spring is arriving quick and is amazing to feel it. Todya was the perfect day: no one cloud in the sky, peaks really full of snow, of powder snow. And at that time the slope is just for me.

A great man's birthday

A man today turned 93.
A great man who teached me a lot, one of my few heroes,  a simple and tre man.
93  years is a big goal, actually is nearly double of my dad's short life.
Today I went up on the slopes, I stopped a minute ( as always) in a very special place fo this man, and I saw a couple of hardcore tourist praying in front of that pile of stones. Well, this simple thing is was the best way to celebrate him.
