Always curious about life, the world and the people who live there. I love traveling to discover and make new experiences. A bike or a backpack on your shoulder and off ... along the way it's nice to make some detours, where you get inspiration (you do not need to follow the piano slavishly, the variations are the touch that gives more taste) ... and when you arrive at your destination a good beer in the company and a good bed with a fascinating book. Naturalist for training, photographer for passion. I enjoy beekeeping and the pizza I prepare is fabulous. I love walking with the family to discover nature, the Soča valley and the Karst are my usual places.

The apartment is located a few metres away from the railway station of Gorizia-Montesanto, that used to be part of the Transalpine railway, connecting the ‘Austrian Nice’, as Gorizia used to be called, to Central Europe. The square in front of the station, half in Italy and half in Slovenia, was inaugurated by Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, on the 19th July 1906. As a consequence of the WWII and the setting of the new border between Italy and Yugoslavia, the square was divided in two by the so called ‘Gorizia Wall’, i.e. a fence 1.5 metre high. The Transalpine Railway became a symbol of the political and ideological separation between Western and Eastern Europe during the Cold War. Since 2004, with the entrance of Slovenia in the European Union, the railway has been made accessible again, by the removal of the border fence on both sides. In the middle of the railway there is a mosaic and a metal plaque signalling the border between the two states.
