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

Yangshuo landscapes simply comes from another world. Going along the "Dragon" river is one of the best experiences I've ever had in my life.

The nature is surprisingly wild, after so many days of overcrowded life here there is just quite, from time to time there are little villages, or rather bunch of houses.

Watching and talking with farmers, and observing their lifes going on is really peaceful.

Pedaling through those roads, crossing the bridges, entering some rice field (and getting caught and thrown away by the farmers), finding an abandoned raft and having a bath in the river (and then being warned about some strange, huge and dangerous animals by a fisherman) are just some of the incredible experiences you can have here in just one day.
It's difficult to add any more comment, they would never get to the feeling you can experience there anyway. Just try and go there one day, you won't never regret it...
