It's being quite a hectic month this June, both workwise and personally. In the long working days I'm spending travelling around I get to meet so many people, new and known. I'm going to places that mean something to my personal life for many reasons and, even though I'm there for work, this gets meContinue reading "Red sparkling life"
Thank you for the patience!
I find it curious how one of the things I like the most, wine, requires such a huge amount of patience: a quality that isn't one of my strong points, I must admit.

It is, finally, the first sunny Saturday in May. I breath deeply.

I keep on walking, climbing the little stairs: they're so many,Continue reading "Spring and Chablis"
