Almost 22 years have passed since this photo was taken, in my university-era bedroom.
I had already graduated and I was doing things I truly enjoyed.
I was about to move out, even though nobody knew it (I was taking notes on my Palm about what to pack, but messiness was the norm, so no one got suspicious). I also had a slightly swollen gum, so I was smiling without showing my teeth, and I had mouthwash on the desk.
And that smile was one of mysterious satisfaction, anticipating what was about to happen soon.

Perhaps the most enigmatic Italian smile since the Mona Lisa.

Indoor snapshot from 15 May 2004: a young man (me) in a gray sweater and light blue shirt smiles at the camera (in an enigmatic way) while holding a Palm handheld device and stylus; behind him are an old Sony CRT TV and a green iMac, with a South Park poster on the wall.

The Weight of a Millimeter

A distracted driver, a motorcycle crash, and the terrifying wait to see if I would ever walk again.

The Scent of a Photo

My smartphone just showed me a photo, taken exactly four years ago today. I published it on the Fediverse back then, showing nothing but enthusiasm for the great takeout food we had ordered.
The truth was different.

Eleven years ago today, I set foot in Great Britain for the last time.
Well, I really miss that island a lot. I think it’s time to plan a new trip, although it probably won’t be anytime soon.

The Magpie

A bird’s noise is enough to bring back memories of months spent half-trapped because of a magpie.

Just an Old Sign

The waiting room was full, but a forgotten sign made me feel suddenly alone. Revisiting a moment when life happened all at once, leaving marks that took time to heal.

The Chair

A familiar road, a moment of pause. I found myself looking at a place that once meant purpose and community. It’s a quiet reflection on what remains when people move on and what stays behind in silence.

Tonight, for some reason, this came back to my mind. Maybe because the weather feels the same as it did back then.

I Just Want to Go Back Home | MyNotes

A single thought that deafened the noise of a new city and a new life. This is the story of a paralyzing fear, of porticoes that felt like cages, and the silent nod that changed everything. It's about finding your way back home, even when you're far away from it.

Yesterday I visited the computer games museum 🕹🎮👾 in Berlin. It was a flashback in so many ways; I really enjoyed it.✨️ The highlight was my very first computer, with which I learned my very first programming language, #gwbasic. The Schneider CPC with its quite exotic 3-inch floppy disk drive. 💾

Hands up, who knows GW-BASIC and maybe even used it?
