In the Kingdom of LO Upper Mustang - NEPAL  - Upper Mustang, a district in northern Nepal, is perhaps one of the last places to find authentic Tibet from a cultural point of view. 
A difficult place to reach, discovering a majestic and almost unknown territory, until a few years ago governed by a small independent kingdom, the Kingdom of LO. 
A journey in search of the authenticity and simplicity of the ways of life of a small people in ancestral places where time has stopped.
Bleu Hindu India - Jhodpur, the blue city  - The city of Jhodpur, India, is defined as "the blue city" due to its very numerous houses painted blue, a color once reserved for the Brahmin caste. 
Charm and history exude from its architecture and its many murals that recall rich and glorious ancient times. 
A very intimate journey to discover the beauty of an everyday life strongly imbued with a past that is still present. (2024)
Attar preziose essenze India  - Il nome Attar deriva  dalla parola "Itr" che in lingua persiana/araba significa profumo, fragranza celestiale.
Nella capitale indiana dei profumi, Kannauj, si producono gli olii essenziali con metodi millenari rimasti intatti fino ai giorni nostri.
Rose damascene, hennè, gelsomino e molti altri fiori, con erbe, spezie e   svariate essenze legnose, sono le basi di questi pregiatissimi profumi esportati in tutto il mondo.
Ma uno su tutti contraddistingue questo luogo, il Mitti Attar , il "profumo della pioggia".

The island that wasn't there Iceland - About 20 million years ago, emerging from the depths of the ocean, an island that did not exist began to form.                                                                   
Iceland, one of the most recently formed lands on the planet.
Generated by the unstoppable forces of nature and in perpetual changement, this land fascinates us for its primordial landscapes of extraordinary beauty, but also for its beating heart of molten rock which periodically shows itself on the surface with spectacular eruptions. (2023)
The honey of the Gods Nepal - Between the western slope of the Himalayas and the southern slopes of Annapurna, in Nepal, live the Gurung, a people of Mongolian-Tibetan ethnicity.
A tradition handed down for generations distinguishes them for their daring hunt for the huge beehives built on the bare rock, suspended in the void.
In these plateaus, at an altitude of 2500 metres, the largest bees in the world produce a honey with hallucinogenic properties... the honey of the gods.

Java, coffer of wonders The Indonesian island of Java is known as the land of numerous and majestic active volcanoes and other dormant ones that reawaken periodically.

The rainbow mountains of the north, the Kaluts (sand castles) in the Lut desert and the wonder of the islands in the far south are just a few examples 
of the extraordinary beauty of a country waiting to be discovered. (2019)
Angkor, the charm of a rediscovered gem Angkor is the most important archaeological site in Cambodia. Built between the 9th and 15th centuries AD. it hosted the capital of the Khmer Empire, 
of which it was the religious and political center.
After the city was abandoned in the 16th century, it was engulfed by the jungle and fell into oblivion.
