So boo. Trick or treat. Go find an old oak and dance under it tonight. Me, I'm going to crawl under the nearest goose-down duvet, "say a few spells, and baby, there you go". It's finally cool here!

These are photos I took in one "sitting", as I was hanging with friends in Piazza Maria Formosa. It was raining, and we had ducked under the canopies of a bar / restaurant, so while they were drinking wine, I was scampering shamelessly around the piazza, marvelling at the colours of the umbrellas under the grey palette.

Bentrovato. That's the reply to the title of this post. When you return from a trip, people in your regular Italian life say: Bentornato, well return. The reply is: Bentrovato, well found. Obviously that's a pretty literal translation, but I prefer the literal, in this case.

I have waited almost a year to play this song. I am leaving for the Fatherland very soon, and I won't have time for another post. This is my farewell for quite a long time. I'll be around the second half of October.

La luna del raccolto, the harvest moon, is here, time to celebrate the crop yield by dancing around a big bonfire and burning effigies and such. It's also another Supermoon and boy, can we feel it here. Everyone's stretching like rubber bands.

"The profound feeling of realizing that everyone, including strangers passing in the street, has a life as complex as one's own, which they are constantly living despite one's personal lack of awareness of it"

"Very PUNK ROCK", my friend wrote. And so it is. The new Moderna vaccine is in full swing, now, along with all the new Covid cases in my life. Like, everyone has it. This post is kinda punk, maybe not in the original sense, or in the original, original sense, but in a 2020s kinda way.

Expect some chaotic energy in the next few weeks : I'm due for a real vacation - no, I'm OVER due for a real vacation - which will happen at the beginning of October. So no themes or rolls until then, just pure inspiration, improviso.

Salve. It's a post of opposites, really. The video is how I appear on the outside, the song is inside. The photo is outside and inside, too, but you'll have to figure that one out. Just kidding.
