i have always been in love with Italy a lot, just as most of us, travellers..
such a beautiful country with charming people and rich history on every corner..
even when im thinking about walking on those streets my heart is full of happiness...

my love began ten years agon, when a friend of mine asked me to join for a week in Roma, the eternal city. it was a love for first sight, i mean with the city.

next time was 5 years later, but worth waiting. i visited Sicily with colleagues and had some wonderful days in Catania and Taormina.

another 3 years passed by, and i found myself in Reggio di Calabria. what a trip that was! wonderful time, that i gave a three-colored marble for, blue for the sky, blue for the sea and yellow for the sun.

then i found myself in Italy a lot of times all of a sudden, by myself, or with friends, very funny situations:-)

it happened not onyl once, that i was thinking tof going to Italy and i was on the road just like one hour later..:-))

the trip of Oct 2005 was planned for two months, but the plan changed almost every second day, and at the end i didnt even follow my plans:-))
