From 2011 to 2012 I was lucky enough to be able to travel around the world.

My backpack and I left Rome for eight months travelling towards the EASY, living a continuous summer across all the continents and experiencing incredible and unrepeatable experiences.

The thrill of a hunting lioness, the feeling os being so small on the Great Wall and the magic on Easter Island, dancing all the night at the Full Moon Party, participating in the Carnival in the Rio Sambadrome. But there was also the fear of dying under a landslide, the terror of being surrounded by a shark and feeling smelled by 'something', in the dark Amazon forest night. The risk of getting lost in the Patagonia and the anger of been robbed halfway through the trip.  On a bike with Cambodians, surfing with Australians, playing football on the beach with Brazilians, drinking wine with Argentines... everyday was a new story with new people, giving me the priceless feeling of having the freedom to manage and live every day of ,y life.

There are so many and so strong emotions that will remain indelible forever in my memory and for my whole life.

In these pages you will find, day by day, some short stories about the greatest adventure of my life

Last but not Least

After so many natural parks and beaches, a last stop in a big city is the perfect way for recovering some strength. If the city is Sydney (MAP), well you can't complain at all.

My last stop in Autralia is probably the best. Besides the weather - which was mainly cloudy and rainy - I had a perfect time there and eventually didnt want to leave the country so soon. But that's life.

Darling Harbour, Sydeny

Sydney is claimed to be one of the most livable city in the world. According to latest surveys it is the second one, just after Zurich. Indeed it is. It's got the sea - stunning beaches are only 20 minutes away from the center - beautiful landscapes, lot of parks, incredible skyscrapers.

And eventually yes, the Opera House, the symbol of the city and one of the most beautiful architecture expressions of XX century. Wherever you look at it from, it is incredible.
