In the wake of the American and French Revolutions, thousands of men and women took to the roads and waterways on both sides of the Atlantic—refugees in search of their inalienable rights.

The refugees thrived and the societies that harbored them prospered.

Tutto ha inizio da una coppia e dalle loro caselle di posta che, in un continuo botta e risposta di messaggi e condivisioni, si riempiono velocemente di foto di luoghi idilliaci che non solo sembrano irraggiungibili, ma lo sono davvero, data la condizione di immobilità a cui Sara, Gian Marco e il resto del mondo sono stati costretti negli ultimi due anni. È in questa bolla di «poi vorrei» che nasce l’idea di Yes Weekend: un format che, dopo aver mosso i primi timidi passi sui social, è diventato una trasmissione di successo su Sky TG24.

The Age of Atlantic Revolution was a defining moment in western history. Our understanding of rights, of what makes the individual an individual, of how to define a citizen versus a subject, of what states should or should not do, of how labor, politics, and trade would be organized, of the relationship between the church and the state, and of our attachment to the nation all derive from this period (c. 1750-1850).

Arktida je část světa, kde se nebe dotýká země. Ne všichni dokážou snést oslepující světlo, neproniknutelnou tmu a ohromnou samotu.

Rok života za nejtěžších životních podmínek, v primitivní chatrči, fascinována krajinou Arktidy. Z každé věty zní velké okouzlení, které taková krajina může v člověku vyvolat. Rozloha, světlo, tma. Blízkost k nepřekonatelné přírodě, která je vržena zpět do sebe.

Herzlich willkommen zu unserer gemeinsamen meditativ-spirituellen Reise auf dem Jakobsweg! Den Jakobsweg kennt jeder. Der Sage nach war im 9.

Der berühmteste Jakobsweg ist der Camino Frances, den auch wir für unsere Reise zum Ziel, Santiago de Compostela in Nordspanien, ausgewählt haben. Der Name Jakobsweg wurde nach Sankt Jakob, einem der 12 Apostel Jesu Christi, benannt.

Most come on a holiday for a few days, a week perhaps, maybe a little longer, but I longed for more (desiderio di più): more of the language, more of the culture, more of the people. Italians have a way of making something more exotic out of life, more adventurous, lovelier, and more relaxing. In Italy, to me, even hanging laundry is beautiful, as it stretches from end to end between buildings. As I take photos in this grand city, I try to capture the endless majesty of her churches, monuments, and people. It is becoming therapeutic.
