About Gianni F.
Ciao a tutti.Mi piace l'escursione amatoriale e camminare, soprattutto mi incuriosisce approfondire la storia dei luoghi che visito, andare a caccia dei fatti, delle vicende e degli avvenimenti per ricostruirne il passato e capirne il presente.Così l’escursione non è solo uno spostamento nello spazio ma diventa anche un viaggio nel tempo.NB: come potrete vedere, non sono un maestro della fotografia. Faccio foto solo per mettere in evidenza le cose che colpiscono la mia attenzione.
Sorry.
