The long winter is almost over! A few more weeks and it will be spring! Although here in Como the weather is still cold, I invite you to explore some small but delightful oasis of green in my town, where I like to stay to relax and to meet old and new friends in the springtime!

Few weeks again, and it will be spring time! Here, I present to you a tiny piece of grass: a little park in Como, on the lake promenade, where I love to stay alone to read, take a short sunbath, do some yoga exercises outdoors, and meet and know new friends!

In this article you can see some photos of my early childhood. I have few fragmented memories of my first years of life, some of which have been awakened by discovering these old images, all taken by my parents.

When I was a child I was mortified about the thought of being swallowed by quicksand. In the city, marshes aren't that prevalent and as I grew older my fear, that had been fed by childhood fiction, was quickly replaced with the more realistic fear of being engulfed by toxic smog from car engines.

Kirstenbosch - the biggest open-air botanical garden of all. I fell in love with this garden when I first came here back in 2004. So, when I arrived to Cape Town this year, I immediately wanted to go back. Although a few obstacles (in the shape of a vineyard visit and so on) almost prevented me from doing that, there I was, still back at Kirstenbosch!

We've been seeing some great weather here in San Francisco! When the sun is shining and the temperature rises, SF locals take some time to enjoy the weather. With our friends, our pets, our picnics and our cameras in tow, there's no better way to spend a day than outside! Thus, here's a list of some or favorite places to lay out and soak up the sun.

Coimbra is "electric" as it can be for young people. It's a famous city in Portugal known for its students and academic tradition, as it has the older universities in the country. Studying, alcohol, and parties make for an explosive mixture. The students will need some rest so where else can they head off to but to the bear park!

Winter is finally leaving more space for magnificent sunny days and here comes my first day of spring of the year!

I cheated on my wife. Yes, I have to admit it. Worst still, it was on our wedding anniversary. Read about my love affair with Diana after the jump.

2012 is the year of the Lomograph! And to celebrate here are my top seven places to visit this coming year.

Walking in the most important park of Como, near the lake. A great place to relax, have fun, play sports, and see some important buildings who tell us the history of the most important citizens of the city.
-
Once in a while, try adding a little assignment to your Lomographic routine -- like what I did with our furry friends at Hyde Park!

Green: the color of life, the sign of summer. The color of photosynthesis, which is necessary for all life on this planet. A really important color you could say. Take a look at some of my favorite greens and photos of trees!

The largest park in London. Richmond Park is a 2,360 acre park within London. It is the largest of the Royal Parks in London and Britain's second largest urban walled park after Sutton Park, Birmingham. The park is famous for its red and fallow deer, which number over six hundred. It is so big, you can't see everything in one day. So we decided to try the route suggested by the Walks in London book by Rough Guides which I recently bought.

Religion, nature and...beer! These three factors make an almost perfect combination, which Park of the Dead offers. In this place you will find a lounge bar open all day and the owner is also a lover of Lomography.

See how Lomography has made it possible for us to see the world in pleasant, vibrant green!

Wapping was originally a Saxon settlement. This area was known as a marshland until the 16th century when it was drained. It then became a rich meadow and garden ground until it was acquired for the London Docks. By 1969, the docks at Wapping were empty. Trees were planted and it was optimistically called Wapping Woods. However, the trees could not survive and the result is the small park we have today.

When you are in the middle of a noisy street, among the people, the traffic, noises, smells...everything seems to be overwhelming! To help you get away from it all, I'm sure that with just a short walk you can easily reach one of London's Royal Parks: Regent's Park, Hyde Park, St. James Park - simply choose one and enjoy!

Fairy-tale looking mountainous region in Cumbria, North-West region of United Kingdom. Lots of people think of the UK as a babylon country of hustle and struggle, and eternal fog (you name it).
They are always surprised to see the photos of enormously beautiful landscapes this country possesses.
Lake District is one of its treasures.
