Wandering through Palazzo Mansi. This a beautifully restored palazzo that keeps alive centuries of art and architecture history. Renaissance windows and neoclassical tromp l’œil frescos, an impressive tapestry collection or a baroque bridal bedroom with original furniture and art exhibits that span six centuries are just hints for an amazing journey of discovery.

“Traveling in Times of Corona” is a quite a stressful affair. While I always plan thoroughly before I set off, I am now almost overwhelmed by the amount of forms, appointments and tests I have to attend to just to make sure we get on that ✈️

But yet again, I am grateful for having the privilege to travel these days - it was like yesterday we took this for granted. Ultimately, all the screening measures make me feel safer and more confident to take the trip.
