While I’m going around to see the grapes blooming, as well as, the cherry trees, enjoying the sweet colors of spring in Romagna, I have already done the hard job of tasting the wines coming from the last harvest. Winter is not exactly the season to visit cellars or going to wine events, but I had the chance to go to…
Sometimes a story doesn’t need so many words to be told and sometimes the place is talking to you from the first moment you arrive. So it happens to me everytime that I visit Cesenatico. The place of my childhood, the memories of my dear mommy, the quiet borough I always go to when I need to think! Hope these…
So Old? That’s was my first thought when I saw the Saffi Square Portocoes decorated with some original banners, showing the milestones of the the 800 years of this beautiful place. As a matter of fact, is one of the hugest squares in Italy, maybe because before becoming what it is now, it was just a country yard,…
Faenza: a nice little town with a lot of trendy fashion shops, a wonderful theater, many very good restaurants and the only and unique International Museum of Pottery. Yes, this is really a “must see” not only of this town, but of Emilia Romagna. Born in 1908, is the oldest museum gathering an amazing pottery…
This post is the first one not written by me. I opened the space of 21grammy to Claire Hastwell of Timeblend with whom I share a lot of things, first of all the philosophy of travelling and writing. We both love stories to tell, people and places. Enjoy! The irony of solo travel is that rarely is it an entirely…
Dublin: the art of entertaining The chance to visit this town came as usual from the Tbex blogger meeting in October 2013. Never had a real interest about this town, apart from a couple of things: the books of Roddy Doyle, which I adore, the film The Commitments and its soundtrack and my beloved Guinness (you may know…
One of the things I like most in being a blogger is that I always receive some nice invitation in places I could have never imagined to be so amazing. Here’s the surprise that came from my friend Francesco of the Consorzio Vino Burson in Bagnacavallo, who invited me to discover this wine and the surrounding area.…
It’s very easy to travel Emilia Romagna, just following it’s food and sometimes it’s even harder to resist to these temptations. If you would like to search for traditional fairs, you would discover that most of them are dedicatd to a Saint or better to a food or to an animal (pork, most of the…
Every year Forlì hosts the Green night: it’s a way to gather, talk about on how to live in a sustainable way and also to give the city a chance to show it’s young ideas. And it’s also the opening of Spring season! Via Giorgio Regnoli is the real center of this night that begins late in the afternoon…
A case, maybe just a true need to have an airport in his own town, but Mussolini really began the aviation tradition of Forlì. The Airport, now unfortunately closed (sometimes it is hard to understand Italian things even for an Italian!), was built in 1935 and one year later was used to test the airplanes built in the…
