Sunset in Uluwatu Temple.
The hotel in Seminyak is inside a temple, yes as you read, Arsana explained to us how every home has its own temple which they look after with much care. Then they have the family temples, built by the part of the family with more money, for the use of all the its members & […]
From an eco farm to Seminyak. Bali
I’ve just landed in Denpasar from Cairns, I go through security & after collecting my suitcase I see a few desks to exchange money, I change a few euros. I must add the Revolut works very well here. It’s a bit complicated to get the hang of this currency, one feels like a millionaire […]
Roman Museums with Basak.
Today I go back to Pincio’s Terrrace, I walk around this beautiful park full of Roman statues, fountains & a lake liven up by the music of this artist that enchants me like the “Pied Piper of Hamelin” I have my ticket that I bought in advance, I arrive earlier to drop off my bag […]
Bernining in Repubblica, Quirinale & Popolo. Rome.
One of my Roman routines is going to yoga; thanks to a friend I found a very pretty studio called Ryoga very close to Piazza Repubblica. The metro stop is right underneath, the first time I exit it I don’t only find myself into a magnificent semicircular square, but facing the exuberant Fontana delle Naiadi right […]
Roman pebbled streets & its secrets.
Dear nomads, remember the round castle of my last post? Yes! Castello di Saint’Angelo. Here I am, having some fruit contemplating it, in the promenade along the river, where the breeze gives me a break from the heat of the summer & little souvenir stands keep me company. I am staring at the beautiful building […]
Trastevere & Gianicolo. Rome
On a Sunday morning I had the brilliant idea to go to Trastevere from my place, crossing the park Villa Doria Pamphilij. It’s quite big, the temperature was mild, & I don’t mind walking. I followed its paths & all of a sudden I found a wall or an old aqueduct, statues, […]
An evening in Monti. Roma.
Dear nomads, we are back at the Coliseum as starting point. I’d like to mention that in its beginnings it was known as Flavio anphiteathre, honouring the family who ordered to build it. Its actual name comes from the statue of the Colosus of Nerón that never made it to our days. It is […]
Rome. Gardens, pyramids & keyholes with a surprise.
Dear nomads, I hope you are enjoying my Roman adventures. In this occasion we are crossing the very long Circo Massimo heading to the opposite side where the baths are, there we find the small & plain church of Santa Maria in Cosmedin. It is a minor basilica located in the Piazza della Bocca […]
Roman Cathedral, Holy Steps & relics.
Some of you call me the “church girl”, no wonder, I must’ve seen heaps of them in Rome, don’t you think? I flooded my social media, some friends would say, “I see you’re still in Rome, I’ve seen a church on Instagram”, well brace yourselves. I already told you about two of the most important […]
Roman Baths & catacombs in Ancient Rome
Did you like the previous post? I hope you did as this time, going back to the Coliseum as starting point I’ll take you to its left, where there’s the great & magnificent Constantine Arch. The most modern of the triumphant arches, with the peculiarity that it was built with materials of plundered buildings. I […]
