The first part of my world trip ended on 20th December 2012, after spending 15 months travelling in South America.
Many
things have happened since then. I had a wonderful time in Italy and
Austria, reconnecting to my family and friends in a fantastic way. A
part of me thought that maybe it is time to settle down again in Italy
after 10 years working and travelling abroad. But after a long
reflection it came clear to me that I want to continue my world trip. So I made up my mind and I am ready to be on the road again. This time I will travel "only" 5 months and a half, and in "just" one country, India.
But before leaving, I would like to summarize some of the highlights of my wonderful European Summer 2013:
-
presentations "Massi on the road in South America": between March and
August I held a total of 7 public presentations and 18 presentations in
school classes, in Italy and Austria. This way, I could reach around
700 people with a basic and important invitation to act: identify your
dreams and realise them! It was a lot of fun for me to present my
Latin-American adventures and I am really satisfied because I could
collect 2.275 € for education projects in Sri Lanka :-)
- book:
during 6 weeks in July and August I wrote my first book :-) It is a
collection of tales from South America and it will be hopefully
published in Italian and the beginning of 2014. I really enjoyed the
writing process and I would like to thank all the friends and relatives
who encouraged me to write!
- friends & music: it was a
spectacular summer full of music (festivals in Vienna and in Italy), of
swimming (Wörthersee, Danube, sea, swimming pools), of walking (Tirol,
Italian Alps) with old and new friends and I really enjoyed it!
I also
spent a lot of time with my parents and I am so thankful to them for
hosting and taking care of me and sharing wonderful moments with their
"prodigal son" ;-)
It would take many more words to describe the
amazing months spent in Europe so I created an album with my favourite
pics:
Best-of Europe January-August 2013
And now it is really
time to say goodbye to family and friends one more time.
I am ready for
India!
Goodbye Italy, see you in February 2014!!
Massi on the road again :-)
