Happy Women's Day :D

Hey Guyss :D 
I really hope everything is fine and that you had a great day!
Yesterday, I celebrated the 'International Women's Day' with my friend :) We were part of the audience at BBC 'International Women's Day Coffee Concert', we enjoyed an amazing live concert and learnt few new things about female composers! 
I have never been at BBC before, that's why it has been an amazing and exciting experience. 
It began with a coffee in a rush and a long queue and ended with a great walk through Covent Garden and Neil's Yard!

Happy Chinese New Year!

This has been a crazy incredible week! For the first time ever I joined a Chinese New Year celebration!
Plus, I got an amazing present as well!
Er...well, actually I just opened the door of my room and I found a small red envelope and a small package which ( I discovered later) was a fortune biscuit, a gift from my super-sweet friends!

100.

A hundred days to go.
A hundred days to departure.
A hundred days to my old life.
A hundred days to warm weather.
A hundred days to hard-study summer session.

Should I feel happy?Sad?
It doesn't matter, I guess. The leading question should rather be: "How to get the most out of these days?"

The basic assumption is that time flies. I can't do anything but admit that I am a hardened procrastinator. I have been spending months, days, hours, seconds saying these few words as a response to all the possible inputs "I have loads of time". #Why am I sooo lazy.

Now, I feel like I have to do something. I feel even stressed, in a hurry. I feel unable to think properly about something to do, because there are plenty of things I would like to do.

Anyway, I'll keep you updated :) The countdown has officially begun ^^

Scared of heights?! London Eye?!

Hello everybody! :D
Here it is for you a collection of pictures of my incredible ( and scary ) experience on the 'London Eye'!
This amazing structure is also known as the 'Millenium Wheel' and it represents one of the main attraction for many tourists! Once you get on board of one of the 32 capsules, you have the chance to see all London Town from above, an experience which is to be considered "absolutely wonderful". 
I am so scared of heights, but thanks to my friends I have decided to overcome my fear and, honestly, it was worth of it! Maybe this can also give you a clue on this week 'FromAtoZ' topic. However, in the meanwhile, I hope you enjoy this small reportage!
With all my love,

So benissimo che questo augurio, a questo punto dell'anno, possa sembrare un attimino fuori luogo, tuttavia, ci tenevo davvero ad aprire questo nuovo anno con un augurio per tutti voi!

'E' is for...

Here we are again!
First of all, Happy New Year my dearest friends! I really hope that 2015 can bring you happiness and whatever you are in need of! I know, it might be a little bit late, but that's what I really wanted to start with.

Thanksgiving Day!

I know I might seem too sentimental. But that's worth it. I have another "D" for this week, which means Day.
Thanksgiving Day.
This is probably to be known as one of the most important national holidays in Canada and United States. So, you are probably wondering...what have an italian, an english, two chinese, a bangladeshi, an ukrainian and germans have to do together?

Happy shopping: Elle UK, December 2014


Elle's new cover is absolutely amazing.
The Feminism Issue is nowadays a really important topic.
Emma Watson is best known for acting, but after her speech at the United Nations she became the new "fresh face of feminism" as Elle has defined her.
Moreover, you can find thoughts from 229 women who joined the magazine.
So glad I bought it. Emma Watson cover, interesting thoughts to be inspired with and as a gift, a high precision eye-liner from Benefit!



La nuova cover di Elle UK è assolutamente meravigliosa.
La "Questione Femminista" oggi ha raggiunto nuove vette.
Emma Watson è sicuramente conosciuta più per la sua carriera di attrice, tuttavia, dopo il suo discorso alle Nazioni Unite è diventata "il volto nuovo del femminismo" ( The Fresh Face of feminism) come la stessa rivista l'ha definita. O meglio ancora, è diventata la nuova icona del femminismo.
Che dire, sono assolutamente felice di aver comprato questa rivista. Emma Watson in copertina, nuove fonti di ispirazione ed un eye-liner ad alta precisione marcato benefits Benefit in regalo.

Go to ELLEUK.com  for info.
Here for Emma's Speech.
Here for the #HeforShe movement.

L'abito non fa il monaco.

"Rispetto", questo sconosciuto!
Quante le critiche rivolte alla società di oggi, troppe forse, ma non sempre corrette. Tutt'al più, trovo affascinante e bizzarro il modo con cui si perseguano certi ideali senza accorgersi delle toppe che rammendano la copertura.
Oggi in metropolitana ho visto un uomo che, nonostante l'aspetto da elegante businessman londinese, dopo aver mangiato il suo croissant da 0.80 centesimi acquistato da Tesco e contenuto in una busta di plastica, furtivamente ha deciso di nasconderla, arrotolata tra i sedili. Tipica dimostrazione che l'abito non fa il monaco. E' inutile sfoggiare abiti eleganti e sfavillanti se dentro non sei una persona rispettosa, onesta. Se c'è una cosa che ho imparato è che "Signori si nasce, non si diventa".
Prima o poi ti troverai a fare i conti con ciò. 
Per concludere direi, non fidatevi degli uomini che indossano un completo elegante, se i loro calzini bianchi e grigi sono in evidenza e in contrasto con lo sfavillante blu del completo e il color cachi delle scarpe.

Never judge a book by its cover!

Can you spell "Respect"?
Sometimes I think that the way people criticize nowadays society is really funny. Moreover, I think it's really fascinating and at the same time absurd the way people decide to pursue some "models" in terms of behaviour, ideals without noticing that the cure is worse than the disease.
Today in the tube I saw a man eating a 0.80£ chocolate croissant from Tesco in a plastic bag. He was wearing a shiny elegan suit, a typical london businessman.
What happened few minutes later was that he, exactly as a thief in the night, decided to leave the plastic bag in the little space between the seats. This is exactly the meaning of "Never judge a book by its cover".
It doesn't matter if you are wearing suits and elegant clothes if the inner you is not respectful and honest. In order to be a gentlemen "you need to be born as a gentlemen"
Sooner or later is something you'll figure out.
Finally, I would suggest to not trust man wearing an elegant suit, if they explicitly show their stripped white and grey socks, which are in contrast with the shiny blu suit and its kakhi shoes.

Cosa fare a Londra quando si è malati?

Come potete immaginare, sono vittima del terribile clima britannico! Ben fatto, Claudia!
Dopo aver trascorso due intere giornate a casa senza far nulla, ho deciso di scrivere qualcosa su: come utilizzare il tempo in modo efficiente quando sei costretto a stare a casa perché sei malato e come non avere successo nel tentarci.

What to do in London when you are sick.

I am, as you can tell, a victim of well-known British weather! Well done, Claudia!
So, after spending two entire days at home not doing anything, I have decided to write something about how to use your time efficiently when you are sick at home, and how not to be successful in doing so.

London&Life

It doesn't matter if it rains. London in the rain is amazing.
Because it doesn't matter how dark and sad something seems,
just turn on the lights and think about the colours! 
That's how you'll change the way you see and feel that situation!

Non importa se piove. Londra sotto la pioggia è magnifica.
Perchè non importa quanto una situazione possa sembrare tetra, triste...
Accendi la luce e pensa ai colori!
Ecco che anche la tua percezione cambierà!
