After the 3,880km (2,100 miles) of the first part of the trip, the return to Ireland recorded “only” 2,650 km (or 1,650 miles) due to the fact we did a more straight line via Italy-Switzerland-France, not touching also Spain and Andorra asContinua a leggere “Back to Dublin via Italy, France, Switzerland”

Drive:
Un’Alfa è sempre una buona scusa per viaggiare e godersi la strada!
Ed infatti tra pochi giorni si parte per un’avventura (in distanziamento sociale) in giro per l’Europa.
(questo era il 2020…poi é successo anche nel 2022 …e non finisce qui 🙂
An Alfa is always a good excuse to travel and enjoy the road.
And indeed in few days we will start a journey (in social distancing) across Europe…
This was in 2020. Then it happened also in 2022…to be continued 🙂
Stay Tuned .-)

Travelling:
“Il mondo è un libro e quelli che non viaggiano ne leggono solo una pagina” _ S. Agostino
Mi piace anche leggere, naturalmente.
Forse il primo modo di viaggiare è proprio leggere. Se pensiamo a ciò che riuscì a scrivere Emilio Salgari senza mai aver visitato le “Indie” ed i Caraibi cosi da lui mirabilmente descritti!
E poi, non è importante come si viaggia, ma proprio il viaggio in se.
“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page of it” _ S. Augustin.
And of course I like reading.
Perhaps the first way to travel is actually reading. If we think of what Emilio Salgari was capable of write without ever having visited the “Indies” and the Caribbean that he admirably described!
Finally, it is not important how you travel but the journey itself.
