Book Review: Hello Sandwich Tokyo Guide

Landscapes

When we traveled to Japan last year our first stop was Tokyo.

Molti arrivano ogni anno per trovare un […]

Was in Yogyakarta for a week on Bahasa Indonesian language course. I arrived on a Saturday evening and had the Sunday off before the course start on Monday. The temple of Borobudur is just 40 km from Yogya. A good chance to visit the mountain temple complex  I heard a lot about when visiting Angkor Way in Cambodia. Went on late afternoon. Foreign and Indonesian tourists climbed the temple and gathered on the top terrace […]

Lithography (from Greek lithos, “stone” + graphein, “to write”) is a method of printing originally based on the fundamental antipathy of oil and water. I took the photos at Mauriartegrafica a company in Cremona (Italy). You can find the gallery here.
