Yes, it is our choice! As in the entire universe, there are differences in every species. Let’s take a look to people. Big, small, round, angular, blonde, brown, black, ….. etc. In the course of life we get to know many. We are in contact with some of them, we know who they are and…

Tuscany, “Il bambino di Lamole” and John and Anne from UK. Emilia Romagna, like the rest of Italy, has completely dried up except for the irrigation ditches. Everything longs for rain.

Finnland und die Legende vom Elch. Da haben wir nun das Nordkap erobert und finden uns zwei Tage später in Finnland wieder. Auch hier warnt man uns vor diesen riesigen Tieren. Ich bekomme jedes Mal einen Lachanfall und frage die Leute ob sie mich veralbern wollen. Ich habe seit 2013 nun insgesamt drei Monate in…
