My thoughts carry weight.
I am the President of the Leonardo da Gioiella Foundation
parodying the words of Barack Obama,
44th President of the United States of America.


This site was partly built and implemented because I wanted you to know that I had a cottage to let.
A good reason to have also some English texts here. To catch your attention, that is.
The cottage is sold, but I decided that the site will remain as it was.

You're welcome here, and I hope you still may find something to your liking.


an old English poem dealing with disquiet and worries


on Italian lessons - and how to learn English


on trinities, how touching they are, and how to use them ... for good and evil


dying to save something from dying ... would you consider it


about some footnotes to Mahler


Bach in our time


just a story


some footnote from Charles Bukowski to Emily Dickinson


just a poem


and another poem


me and the pigs in my father's head


the blessings harbouring gloom - some thoughts on an old friend of mine


on reincarnation - trusting it to my own hands
