India
My long-term love story with the most passionate, diverse, and intense place on earth.
We first met in 2012 ( see Ladakh and Nepal adventure) and since then I haven’t been far away from this country for more than ten months.
I keep on asking myself what exactly I love about this land so much, why it feels like home, and why I need to come back as soon as I can.
I found thousands of reasons, and I keep on finding them, every single day I spend in there.
I will tell you why I think Indians and Italians are very similar, I will tell you why I keep on going back to the remote and unknown Northeast of the country and I will tell you why sometimes I also need to leave and go away for a bit. I will tell you the struggles and joys, the two sides of a place that has diversity as its superpower. Where there are always two opposite aspects of the medal: the candid white, the darkest black, and the brightest, happiest colors in all their shades in between.
90.000 kms around India
Twice. On a truck.
There is no better way of immerse yourself and touch with hands the incredible diversity of India. Km by km, on the road, where life is happening, where people shout, where traffic is packed, where things are frying and markets are full. Where Jungles are on the side of the road and palaces on top of the hill ate the horizon.
