Happy birthday...to me

There I go, today, 24th of September I turn 24. Kinda symbolic come to think of it. I actually I didn't celebrate at all because I hold a long tradition of spedning my birthday alone contemplating about life and existential stuff. I have 364 other days where I can get drunk and party so it's not much of a deal. I went to church (don't laugh, please) and have been accepting wishes from friends most of the day. One yeat passed,another one to go. Let's see what life brings ....

Some news on the run

Story goes like this - I have been in Bulgaria for 12 days (6 of which I was in Greece). It was really "lovely" that several friends expressed their view that Greece sucks but anyway I had a really great time on the island of Tassos and the beaches of Keramoti (pictures soon). The only problem came not from the Greek side but quite logically from the Bulgarian tour operator and the other Bulgarian toursits. Sometimes I think there is something wrong with us as a nation that we have to fight over everything, we can't organize even e 30 minutes trip and we behave unsocially and weird with new people. At this point I really miss friendly, easygoing Italy.

Also, I have been meeting people like hell - I am already fed up with telling everybody the same story and I am giving serious thought to adding new details to make it sound different. So fat I have managed to meet about 80% of people and tonight is my AIESEC welcome party.

Meanwhile I have managed to visit a great jazz festival here in Plovdiv,planning a Beethoven piano concerto this Friday and a trip to Koprivshtitsa during the weekened. More to come....

Back in Bulgaria

So I am back...After some rough experience (remind me never to use Alitalia again) I have spent 3 really great days meeting friends, seeing my loving family and going out. Let's see how long I can keep myself happy here. I am going to spend one month in Bulgaria(actually planning a holiday in Greece) and I will be back in Torino in October. I would be happy to meet all my friends here so, mates,call me when available.
