The effect of the time

The effect of time
Here I am, some time has passed… maybe too much. I missed my moments of writing thoughts. The effect of time or the effect of November? The effect of time, because it passed quickly. The month that reminds me of my deafness has passed, but November isn’t a joke either,

The effect of Autumn on me

The effect of autumn on me
This morning I woke up and felt the need to write. I had been thinking about it for a few days, you know, it’s been a while since I last wrote, searching for justifications like ‘I’ve been busy, I was in Italy, had some minor work issues, various commitments’… I

World Deaf Day
Today should be World Deaf Day. I use the conditional because I always get these things wrong, that is, the days… That is, World Day of the Deaf could very well have been yesterday. I always arrive on time at these things, sordamaldestra for a reason I will be. Social

Last Saturday, I went to see the exhibition at Sotheby’s titled “The World of Freddie Mercury,” in anticipation of the upcoming auction in September.

The sun in London

the sun in London
In the hostile country, in this strange summer, the sun isn’t in fashion. And today, when the sun was out and it was beautiful, I took advantage of it. Lunch break in the park, lying on the grass, coffee, 25 degrees, a gentle breeze. Ideal temperature. Perfect weather. On days
