Happy new year, you all, I do wish you a very very special 2010.

in these days I'm studying new paths for my trekkings.
the other day I received an e-mail with other photos of this summer
look, don't they seem very interested :)))



wow, can't wait to get out trekking with "my" turists again :)

and today it was a perfect day for walking..

say hallo to Italy's most charming lake..

the Garda Lake!

me? I cleaned the garage today! :))



this is a recipe given me by a internet friend of mine, Paola
we've known each other virtualy since 2005, but have never met.
she lived in Mexico for several years and is now back in Italy.
I do hope to meet her soon :)
