Hpa-An caves in South Myanmar, Burma

May 3, 2017 by pile Leave a Comment

Sailing into a cave in Hpa An Myanmar

Unless you want to relax for few days in a quiet small village, one day/two nights should be enough to explore the caves spread in the surrounding of Hpa-An. One option could be to join a guided tour, but if like me you prefer to explore at your peace without a strict plan I would […]

Colonial city of Paraty: wonders and water reflections @ Brazil

June 16, 2016 by pile Leave a Comment

Paraty water reflections

As happened before the suggestion of other travellers and locals met on the way resulted in beautiful surprises: the small coastal town of Paraty in the state or Rio de Janeiro, Brazil is one of them! A night bus from Sao Paulo drops me in the tiny bus station (“Rodoviaria”) of Paraty in the middle of […]

Argentina goes Green!

May 15, 2016 by pile Leave a Comment

Slow Down!Slow down even more… I’ve been a “running”, almost hectic person in Life, trying to achieve and do as much as I could.Day after day, the Wave of Destiny is showing me another way of living at a slower peace: enjoying the moment I’m living in, being free to stay longer in a place I like or with a new friend met on the way. Forgetting airplanes and travelling by bus or even better waiting on the side of the road to get a ride from someone like me, who likes to share and meet new people

10 days of Silence – Vipassana meditation retreat!

   Here we are again.. Since my last post when leaving El Bolson and its friends almost a month has passed. Many places and experiences, but one in particular went deep inside me: 10 days retreat to learn Vipassana meditation technique, the same discovered by Buddha over 2500 year ago! The course is starting in a week time near Cordoba, over 1800 Kms drive from El Bolson, but before closing myself in complete silence I have time to visit San Carlos de Bariloche with its mountains and the

I stop here in El Bolson!

  “El Bolson te atrapa!” (El Bolson gets you!)It is probably the phrase I heard the most in the last month..  Climbing is one of my passions and thanks to this sport I met incredible friends. One of them apparently moved back from Milano to his home country and town: El Bolson, Argentina.  Destiny wants that this little charming town protected by the mountains is on my route North. Fabio and Yen are still travelling with me when we jump off the bus in the centre of El Bolson and receive the best

Patagonia: a land of Adventures and Surprises!

March 26, 2016 by pile Leave a Comment

What a challenge to describe with few words the last three weeks spent in the Wilderness and Nature of Patagonia jumping from one adventure to the other! To share the feeling of Freedom given by explore new lands and people with two Wicked vans that became the home for me and other nine other amazing friends while driving South from Santiago de Chile to the “end of the World” (also called Punta Arenas). Ten travellers “from all around the World!”, as we soon get used to reply in chorus to all
