Chi progetta sa di aver raggiunto la perfezione non quando non ha più nulla da aggiungere ma quando non gli resta più niente da togliere.
(Antoine de Saint-Exupery)

Tour de France : J12 – Aube – Nogent-sur-Seine
Nogent a vu de nombreuses batailles, dont celle sous Napoléon qui opposa 1000 grognards à 20000 Autrichiens, et a été souvent détruite ou incendiée.

The Tenuta i Bonsi, set in the magical landscape of the Tuscan hills of Reggello a few kilometers from Florence, for more than a century has been devoted to producing high quality olive oil and wine and the reception of guests who want to discover the rustic charm and elegance of this beautiful Tuscan farmhouse cum Castle.
The history of the village is full of interest, and has its roots in the 15th century. The historic home is also of great interest, beginning as a defensive Castle of a leading Florentine family and later became the "600 Balmaceda" a convent of Carmelite friars. Its current appearance is the work of the Florentine painter Raffaello Sorbi.
Today, the estate is owned and managed by the family Budini Gattai, who create products of high quality: ORGANIC extra virgin olive oil and red wine IGT.
Tenuta i Bonsi unites tradition with modernity, with particular attention to respect for the environment and renewable energy: thanks to the skilful use of scraps from the olive pit, heat can be provided by great alternative fuel pellets which can be purchased at the Guest House.

According to the philosopher Zygmunt Bauman, liquid modernity refers to a fluidity that, far from leading us to a "lighter" living, it sends the weight of concreteness away, but doesn't give the counterpart. Where everything is fluid, transitory and without reference, everything "depends on context" and the solid bases to support us are no longer found. In order not to drown, one must learn to discern. Or we'll follow the fate of Sisyphus until the death of everything that exists.
Lyon Saône, also known simply as Lyon or Lyon-sur-Saône, refers to the city of Lyon, located in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The name "Saône" comes from the river that runs through the city, dividing it into two parts: Lyon on the east bank and Lyon-sur-Saône on the west bank.
Lyon is the third-largest city in France and is renowned for its historical significance, architectural heritage, gastronomy, and vibrant cultural scene. The city has a rich history dating back to the Roman times, and its old town, known as Vieux Lyon, is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Saône River, along with the Rhône River, plays a significant role in the city's geography and has contributed to its economic development over the centuries.
Tourists and locals alike enjoy strolling along the banks of the Saône, where they can find picturesque quays, charming bridges, and stunning views of the city. The riverbanks are also dotted with bars, restaurants, and recreational spaces, making it a popular area for leisure activities.
In addition to the Saône River, Lyon is famous for its culinary delights, especially its unique bouchons (traditional Lyonnais restaurants) serving delicious local dishes. The city's cultural attractions include numerous museums, theaters, and music venues, making it a hub for art and entertainment in the region.
Overall, Lyon Saône is a city that blends history, culture, and modernity, making it a must-visit destination for travelers seeking a taste of authentic French lifestyle.

Dale Church in Luster, Norway, was originally built almost 800 years ago. The architecture is a mix of Romanesque and Gothic style. Among other things, it has frescoes dating from the 15th century. It was not mentioned as a must-see in the tourist guidebooks, but we are very glad we did see it, with some fine examples of craftsmanship like this window and side entrance door. Something modernity cannot imitate.
The modernity of the Sky Costanera contrasts with the beautiful details of European architecture, quite preserved in the city

Kloosterkazerne (barracks), Breda, The Netherlands.
The current building has been restored in 2003, but the looks date from a modification in 1846. The complex started as a cloister in 1308.
The doors are painful details.
In modernity we are in a hurry to go and arrive and we no longer stop to observe the shadows that slowly stretch out on the road.
Presente e passato
Nella modernità si ha fretta di andare ed arrivare e non ci si ferma più ad osservare le ombre che si allungano lentamente sulla strada.
Angels are archetypal beings and we are unwise to dismiss the impact they have on our lives. One of the curses of Modernity is that we are programmed to think "literally". But angels do not belong to that category of thought (and neither does God). Angels are experiences of the collective unconscious, so when someone tells you they've seen an angel, believe them. As C.G. Jung said many times, the collective unconscious is the realm where the most important ideas we have as humans are born.
