  11. I lost myself in noise, in nights, toxicity, girls, in things that meant nothing…
    Then I found peace in silence, in football, in nature, in friends and real love ♥️
    Today I can say… I’m feeling better 🫶🏻

  14. Fontane di Roma: Sculpted aquatic marvels of the Eternal City

    Close up view of the Fountain of Neptune in Piazza Navona – the blog author’s personal favorite

    Usually the first attractions one hears about regarding Roma, Italy are the Vatican and the Colosseum. The Trevi Fountain (Fontane) is usually high on the list too, but you may not hear of the hundreds of other fountains that dot the city. For us, these aquatic marvels, often sculpted in marble, were a particular highlight of the Eternal City.

    We were particularly fond of the three fountains in Piazza Navona as well as the Quattro Fontane at the intersection of Via del Quirinale and Via XX Settembre where each corner of the intersection is graced with a unique fountain.

    Trevi Fountain, while quite beautiful, is literally overwhelmed with tourists, making the experience much less than satisfying. Who knows if the recently enacted new two euro fee for those seeking close access to the fountain will make a difference.

    Most endearing to this retired urban planner was the way these sculpted fountains served as a gathering place…a place of relaxation and contemplation…a third place to meet friends and family or to just people watch. The fountains also serve as a sanctuary…a place of respite from the hustle and bustle of the city surrounding you through the soothing “white noise” of the fountain’s gurgling waters.

    American cities could learn a lot about placemaking from Roma and other Italian cities. From piazzas to fountains to gardens to monuments, many Italian cities radiate  people-friendly attributes. One cannot help but become enamored with their endearing charm.

    Provided below is but a small sampling of these wonderful works of sculpting art mixed with water — some are as much as 500 years old. Pax!

  16. Irland Roadtrip 2017: Nordirland, Giant’s Causeway & Küste

    Nach unserer Ankunft in Dublin und der Übernahme des Mietwagens ging es für uns direkt los. Viel Zeit zum Ankommen blieb nicht, denn wir wollten die ersten Kilometer möglichst hinter uns bringen. Dublin war für uns Startpunkt und organisatorische Notwendigkeit, nicht der eigentliche Fokus dieser Reise. Der Roadtrip sollte draußen stattfinden. Auf schmalen Straßen, an der Küste und dort, wo Irland sich von seiner eindrucksvollsten Seite zeigt. Schon die ersten Stunden im Auto fühlten […]
