I am in Sicily, I arrived last night. I didn’t sleep a wink on the overnight leg of the journey, New York to Rome. We spent half a day in Focene, a small sea town near Rome with my friend Claudia. After a lunch of spaghetti alle vongole (clams) by the sea, Claudia drove us [...]

“Now that you are back you are not going to do it again are you?” I asked Andrew while hugging him. He smiled at my question and I felt reassured. “You know,” I explained, pleased to have this chance. “Everyone feels down at some point, this is an important thing to know. Sometime you feel [...]
