Obsession

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zero - HOME
Alabama, Arkansas, I do love my Ma&Pa
Not the way that I do love you

Holy roly, me, oh my, you're the apple of my eyes
Girl, I've never loved one like you

Man, oh man, you're my best friend, I scream it to the nothingness
There ain't nothin' that I need

Well, hot&heavy, pumpkin eye, chocolate candy, Jesus Christ
There ain't nothin' please me more than you

Ahh, home
Let me come home
Home is wherever I'm with you

Ahh, home
Let me come home
Home is wherever I'm with you

La la la la, take me home
Baby, Im coming home

I'll follow you into the park, through the jungle, through the dark
Girl, I've never loved one like you
Moats & boats & waterfalls, alley ways and pay phone calls
I've been everywhere with you
That's true

We laugh until we think we'll die, bareboot on summer night
Nothin' new is sweeter than with you

And in the sticks we're running free like it's only you and me
Geez, you're something to see

Ahh, home
Let me come home
Home is wherever I'm with you

Ahh, home
Let me come home
Home is wherever I'm with you

La la la la, take me home
Baby, Im coming home


 


Goooood, i felt in love with this song! Im listening it on repeat everytime! Lyrics are amazing and the sound makes u feel happy and positive. LOVE LOVE LOVE!




Today i've bought maybe the best book of my life!

VAGABONDING
Rolf Potts

"Potts has reported from more than fifty countries for the likes of National Geographic Traveler, the New York Times Magazine, Slate.com, Conde Nast Traveler, Outside, National Public Radio, and the Travel Channel. A veteran travel columnist for the likes of Salon.com and World Hum, his adventures have taken him across six continents, and include piloting a fishing boat 900 miles down the Laotian Mekong, hitchhiking across Eastern Europe, traversing Israel on foot, bicycling across Burma, and driving a Land Rover from Sunnyvale, California to Ushuaia, Argentina."

"Rolf explain you how to best use your money… and more importantly, your time. After all, what use is having millions of dollars in the bank if you have no clue how you’re going to live your life?
For many reasons, travelers can oftentimes miss the point of their entire travel experience. This is especially true for those of us who are trying to make a full-time income while traveling. Rolf, and his book, Vagabonding, are the answer to that."

I just started to read it.. and I think this book push yourself to 'vagabonding' all around the world, understanding what's means 'vagabonding' and the best way of doing it.


Stay Tuned

Happiness

Rainy days, grey sky but Im happy. Ill be on mountains in 2 weeks, and there's no better wish. Im looking forward to see again some of my friends, ride again my snowboard and feel these emotions that only snow makes me feel. Oh yes, Im ready to go!

What's happiness?
It's different for everyone, each of us have different interests, hobbies, personalities. You can't describe happiness, it's a feeling that comes and goes away. It depends on how much things make you smile.
Anyway, read these words about life, be always positive:

'Life is too short...
Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness.
Laugh when you can,
Apologize when you should...
If not always.
And let go of what you cannot change.
Have no regrets,
Life is too short to be unhappy...
You have to take the good with the bad...
Smile when you're sad.
Love what you've got,
And always remember what you had...
Always, always forgive, but never forget.
Learn from your mistakes,
but never regret.
People change.. Things go wrong...
But always remember...
Life goes on.'

That's make me feel full of desire of things to do in my life. It makes me push myself.


Daily playlist of happiness:

2. Doves - Jetstream


3. James Brown - The Boss




'Un oggetto può piacere anche per se stesso, per la diversità delle sensazioni gradevoli che ci suscita in una percezione armoniosa; ma ben più spesso il piacere che un oggetto ci procura non si trova nell' oggetto per se medesimo. La fantasia lo abbellisce cingendolo e quasi irraggiandolo d'immagini care. Nell'oggetto insomma amiamo quel che vi mettiamo di noi.' cit. Luigi Pirandello

Concordo con Pirandello. Spesso siamo attaccati ad un oggetto non solo per la sua esistenza o per quel che vale in se. Ogni oggetto a noi caro ha una storia dietro di sè, c'è qualcosa di noi in esso, o qualcosa che ha lasciato qualcun'altro. Contiene un insieme di emozioni. Ma ogni tanto credo che, oltre agli oggetti questo valga anche per le persone. Pirandello parla di fantasia, una persona ci piace per il suo insieme, le sensazioni che ci fa provare e il suo essere... Ma a volte siamo noi ad aggiungerci la nostra fantasia, che ce lo fa piacere maggiormente.



'L'unico modo di liberarsi da una tentazione è cedervi.' cit. Oscar Wilde
'Affrettiamoci a cedere alle tentazioni, prima che esse si allontanino.' cit. Ann O'Nym

Perchè è così difficile resistere alle tentazioni?
Le tentazioni sono quelle cose irresistibili che ci chiamano, delle quali proviamo piacere. Nessuno riesce a non cedere alle tentazioni, perchè è più forte di noi stessi... Siamo portati automaticamente a cedervi. E perchè mai non dovremmo cedervi? E' sempre meglio avere un rimorso che un rimpianto nella vita... tentar non nuoce! E soprattutto, non aspettiamo a cedervi.. perchè le tentazioni potrebbero allontanarsi, non avremmo più l'occasione, carpe diem.



'Quando viaggio mi piace avere sempre qualcosa di interessante da leggere, per questo porto sempre con me il mio diario.' cit. Oscar Wilde

Io adoro quest'uomo. Scrivere un diario durante il viaggio è una cosa senza paragoni. Poter tramandare su carta tutte le emozioni che si provano in un dato momento, raccontare dei minimi dettagli e delle cose fantastiche che incrociamo durante il cammino. 
Anch'io porto sempre con me il mio diario. E' sempre un piacere poterlo rileggere nei momenti grigi e rivivere tutte quelle emozioni. Già, perchè il bello del viaggiare è proprio il viaggio in sè, non il punto di partenza nè tantomeno la meta. Viaggiare senza meta è il vero viaggio. In questo momento farei volentieri uno zaino e prenderei il primo treno che passa, ho voglia di avventura, di esplorare il mondo, fare cose diverse, conoscere gente, culture e posti diversi; trovare il mio partner-trip e fare il viaggio della vita. Il mondo ci offre così tante bellezze, e io non riesco a starmene fissa in un posto, mi sento soffocata.

Last good memories

After a week studying in the city.. My mind is travelling into the past, remembering good time spent in Les 2 Alpes in this october. I like to stay there, it's the place where Im active, always doing something and never have boring time. Such as a mix of snowboarding, working, chillin' and partying. Meet all my friends, spend a nice time with them, meet new people. This way of living make me feelgood.

This was our Halloween in Facciosnao Camp in L2A, just havin' fun! Siiiick party and funny lottery with some materials prizes by Nitro, Vans, Facciosnao and Bliss.


I had 4 days riding in the park with sunny days and not so cold temperatures. Siiiick shredding! Last weekend the glacier was closed for too much wind... but I was so tired after the week anyway!

Jus Liv'n in L2A

When the glacier is closed for too much snow and wind, u are looking through the window and the only thing u can see it's something like 20cm of fresh snow. There's only one thought in your mind, let's go find some spot to jib!



 
Firstly we went to the lake at the beginning of L2A, amazing landscape, icy lake and snow every where. We found some pic nic tables in wood to jib, siiick.
Later we went to the bike park, some of my friends had a ride on 2 little jumps and a quarter in wood. At the end we bring a plastic tube in front of our camp. Really nice day shredding in street!



Fuck Yeah!

Les 2 Alpes again

Season never ends... After a sick summer season in Les 2 Alpes, im here again. The ambience is kinda like in the summer, maybe less italian or spanish tourists. There are a lot of French riders and locals from here, and  our italian Facciosnao Camp. Anyway nice ambience, not so much people in the park.. weather says that tomorrow should snow, i hope! It promises a nice week here. Tonight let's go party, there's many people cause of Rock On Snowboard Tour.
I like this place and people here, small town full of nice and friendly people, like a big family.
Check some pics of these 2 days stayin' here

I Love Poland

I was born in Legnica, Poland, in 1990.
At the age of 4 I moved to Italy with my parents. Anyway once a year I go to Poland.

Lately I was in Poland for 2 weeks. I've spent my time in Legnica, where my grandma and my uncle lives; in Wroclaw, where some of my friends study and Lwowek Slaski where my cousins live.


Wroclaw

I really love Wroclaw, it's a kind of city where you can find everything. It's enough big, full of shops and shopping centre, all kinds of fast food.. my favourite is KFC, I really LOVE it! I think everybody must go once in its life to KFC, the best fastfood in the world.
And New Yorker is my favourite shop! It's a german chain of shops, somethin' like H&M but cheaper and sometimes better. Really nice apparel with cheap prices

Wroclaw is full of students, from high school to university. A lot of students coming from outside the city, lives in some dormitories in the city, one for each school. In Poland dormitories are diffused everywhere, in Italy it's not the same. For this reason you can find lots of young people everywhere during the day and the night! There are some nice clubs for everyone, different kinds of ambiance, music and people. I went to Plan B, where plays some funky music, very nice!

Zajezdnia is the name of the indoor skatepark in Wroclaw, close to the centre of the city. Siiiick park! I'm not a really good skater ;p so I don't use every structure at all. There are a lot of box, some difficult rails, a mini ramp, some quarters and banks. There's also a quarter where you cand land on some sponges.. somethin' like WoodWard at Copper Mtn, useful for BMX bikers or skate inline!




Fountain near Hala Stulecia makes some performances of water each hour to the rhythm of classical music.



Close to the fountain there's a Japanese garden, not so big.. but nice to visit and take some pictures



I post some pictures of my journey in Poland
