Harvest

It’s been a Journey rich of emotions, of learning, of fatigue, of fun, of family involvement. Rich of things to experience and to tell, and to remember. And to repeat.

I want to dedicate these lines and my thoughts to a person that has been very important in my personal and professional journey. She meant a significant shift in my life path, she has been a reference point and a great support for me for an long time. I learned a lot from her, and I enjoyed the work together.

Thank you dear Esther, wherever you are now.

Half a Century

Images of a celebration of a Journey that has reached 50 years of age.

Salvio was here and we spent quality and nice time together with my family. We went to the Böblingen Mineraltherme, had dinner in Nagold. Guni, Diego and Wanda surrounded me with their love and their presents.

I did not feel the need of a big celebration, on the contrary I just wanted to live these days in an easy way.

Every time I look back in time I have the perception of the so many things happened. Like there have been many Gianni in one, in many places, with many emotions. At 50, now, I have a sense of joy, of satisfaction for all that these years have included.

I have lived this person, this soul, Gianni, through half of a Century.

Lago di Garda

19-28.08.2024
We had a very nice vacation at Lago Di Garda, first time in my life there. Weather, resort, surroundings were very nice (except Sirmione, not worth the effort of the visit). One option I would consider again for future holidays. We stayed at Camping Riva Blu.

“Sayshell is not part of the Foundation Federation. Therefore, because they’re proud of their independence and because they don’t like to remember that they are much weaker than the Foundation and remain independent only because we’re willing to let them remain so, they indulge in the luxury of disliking us.” (from “Foundation’s Edge” by Isaac Asimov)

Firstbornes

My first experience of gardening does not seem to be successful in terms of fruits, but I am learning and having fun. Few plants continue to grow, many not. These ones are the first 2 tomatoes I spotted. I did not buy any fertilizer, I made all in house. Fully Bio! Simply experienced the beauty and power of nature.

Belonging

Belonging to Rome was a great desire, and became reality.

Belonging to Berlin was a great desire, and became reality.

Belonging to Baden-Württemberg was a great desire, and is reality.

from “Astronomical”

“Everyone wonders sometimes if the human race is worth preserving and everyone has moments where they look at the size of the Universe and feel insignificant by comparison. Space science can potentially be depressing because it reminds us of our smallness. My answer is this: imagine if the Universe really were simple. Imagine how boring the story of science would be if Earth genuinely were flat, or if there was nothing outside our solar system. Imagine if, after spending a few years looking around with telescopes, we knew everything there was to know. No more mystery. No more exploration. No more discovery. How awesome it is that instead we find ourselves in a universe as huge and varied as this one. How fortunate we are to be surrounded with so many mysteries in desperate need of solving and how lucky we are to live in a universe bigger than our imaginations. All of us, every single one of us, is small, that’s true. But all of us, every single one of us, has a thirst to understand where we fit in. We can all marvel at science and we can all take part in the adventure of learning what the cosmos has in store. Studying science is not reserved for elite boffins in lab coats with IQs in the 150s. Science is for everyone, with all our baggage, emotional hang-ups and self-doubts. There is a whole reality out there waiting to be explored. And it will be. By people like you and me. Science is not simply the thing that brought us out of the caves: it is the thing that will take us to the stars.” (from “Astronomical: From Quarks to Quasars, the Science of Space at its Strangest” by Tim James) 

Thank You Rod!

I went to his Live in Stuttgart tonight on 15.5.24.
My first time to one of his concerts, and probably the last one as this should be Rod Stewart’s last Tour.
I have loved and still love many of his songs; since I was very young he’s been an idol and an icon for me and for my passion for music and singing. And he still is.


Thank You Rod!
